1685 Tasso Jerusalem Delivered CRUSADES Italian Gerusalemme Liberata Muslim RARE

“All he regarded; but in Syria most,

He mark’d the leaders of the Christian host:

That eye, whose penetrating glances dart

To each deep secret of the human heart”

– Torquato Tasso, Jerusalem Delivered, canto I

Originally written in 1575, Torquato Tasso’s famous “Jerusalem Delivered” tells a mythical story of the First Crusade complete with Christian Knights battling Muslim warriors. In 1583, five additional cantos were written by Camillo Camilli to supplement Tasso’s original poem.

This undated 1685 Bassano edition includes Camilli’s additions.
