| Summary | "Il Quadriregio" by Federico Frezzi is a narrative poem likely composed in the early 15th century. This work unfolds in a fantastical realm ruled by divine figures, namely Amor and Diana, focusing on themes of love and desire. The central character is the protagonist who navigates the challenges of love, particularly his infatuation with the beautiful nymph Filena, as they traverse the complexities of yearning and divine intervention. The opening of the poem introduces the character of Amor, who guides the narrator to the enchanting kingdom of Diana. Here, the scene is set in a lush, idyllic landscape filled with nymphs, where a hunt is taking place. Amor reveals his intent to shoot the nymph Filena with a golden arrow, igniting a chain of events driven by love, jealousy, and divine conflict. The narrative establishes a rich tapestry of emotions and mythical elements, hinting at themes of transformation and the interplay between mortal desires and the will of the gods.
