His plays contain some evidence that he did, but so far it has not been enough to convince a majority of scholars. The picture has now become much clearer than it was. This article will give reasons to believe that by the end of 1593 Shakespeare had visited the North Italian town of Bassano del Grappa, some forty miles north-west of Venice, and had probably spent several days there. During his stay he carefully studied a very large external fresco, and possibly made sketches of it. This new information agrees well with what Shakespeare's plays already suggest about his knowledge of Italy. Bassano was a subject territory of the Venetian Republic, and Venice is the Italian city of which Shakespeare's plays show the most detailed knowledge. Besides Venice and Bassano, he seems to have spent time in Padua, and possibly in Milan, Mantua and Verona.

There, in an attempt to achieve his goal, the legendary Greek musician sings for the god of the underworld, who instantly melts into "Raptures", cries out "O caro caro", and surrenders with the words, "I am conquered; by Styx, you shall have her back. Take my Wife too, take everything; another Song, and take my Crown." In Fielding's retelling of the tale, his Orpheus is an Italian castrato. In some ways that is not surprising. During the years in which he was writing for the stage, Italian opera had taken London by storm, with rival companies locked in a bidding war for its most popular performers, the castrati Tue, 01 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT /library/oar/handle/123456789/127413 2008-01-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/127411 Title: Alcune pagine dal giornale della vita di S.M. la Regina Vittoria nell' Alta Scozia (1862-1882) storia di una traduzione Authors: Berbeglia, Simonetta Abstract: Domenica 8 giugno 1884, sul quotidiano fiorentino La Nazione apparve l' annuncio: Successori Le Monnier Firenze, Via San Gallo, 33 Si e pubblicata la versione italiana delle important MEMORIE · di S.M. la Regina Vittoria d'Inghilterra Trovasi presso i principali librai Trattavasi in realta del volume Alcune pagine dal giornale della vita di S.M. la Regina Vittoria nell'Alta Scozia (1862-1882), traduzione a cura di V.
