A Tale of Two Noble Lovers – Part 2: Conflict, Lust & Torture.
This is Part 2 of the story of Luigi Da Porto, the man who created ‘Romeo and Juliet’. This historical novel is set in Friuli and Venice in the early sixteenth century and tells the story of Luigi Da Porto’s love affair with Lucina Savorgnan and the events that influenced the creation of his novella entitled ‘Guilietta, a tale of two noble lovers’. That novella was the inspiration for Shakespeare’s ‘Romeo & Juliet’. In Part 2, Luigi is injured in battle and his love affair with Lucina becomes more complicated than ever as the Doge conspires to arrange a marriage between Lucina and another so as to cement the support he desperately needs to maintain the strength of the Republic. The torture chambers beneath the Doge's castle are described as also are some of the brutal acts typical of those times.
