Il pastor fido is a pastoral tragicomedy set in Arcadia by Guarini. It’s one of the most famous works from the 16th century. It was written in honour of the nuptials of the Duke of Savoy and Catherine of Austria in 1585. This edition was published in Venice in 1590. The author continued to revise the play during his lifetime, the last revision being for the 20th edition published in Venice in 1602.
Il pastor fido inspired many madrigal composers (including Claudio Monteverdi, Giaches de Wert, and Heinrich Schütz), as well as Handel's opera of the same name, premiered in 1712.
