Meer over het boek

Set in seventh-century Milan, the play follows Pertarito, the exiled king believed dead after being usurped by Grimoaldo. Grimoaldo, who plans to marry Pertarito's sister Eduige, instead desires Rodelinda, Pertarito's supposed widow. The narrative unfolds with Pertarito's unexpected return, leading to a confrontation where Grimoaldo dismisses him as an impostor. Despite its initial poor reception, the play inspired Italian adaptations that served as libretti for notable operas, including Handel's famous version featuring Rodelinda.
