Summary "Opera nova amorosa, vol. 2" by Napolitano Notturno is a tragicomic play composed in verse during the early 16th century. This work is characterized by its exploration of romantic themes, particularly centered on the intricate dynamics of love, desire, and the human condition. With a range of characters, the narrative delves into the emotional turmoil and societal expectations surrounding romantic relationships, especially emphasizing the vulnerabilities of women in matters of love. The play unfolds with the character of Chyreresis, who reveals her dreams while grappling with the torment of unrequited love and societal pressures. The themes of longing and despair are poignantly expressed through dialogues between Chyreresis and her suitors, Nobile and Rustico, each illustrating different responses to love and rejection. Ruled by their desires and misunderstandings, the characters navigate through a series of emotional conflicts, ultimately leading Chyreresis to contemplate her fate in the face of love’s complexities. The tragedy is darkened by themes of betrayal and the lamentation of lost opportunities, reinforcing the notion that love can often come at a painful price.
