Cunizza da Romano (born c. 1198) was an Italian noblewoman, the third daughter of Ezzelino II da Romano and Adelaide di Mangona, and sister to Ezzelino III and Alberico da Romano. As a young girl, Cunizza married Riccardo di San Bonifacio, Lord of Verona, but eloped with the court poet Sordello, who took her to his parents' house. Later she married Aimerio of the Counts of Braganze. She spent her last days in Florence in the household of Cavalcante de' Cavalcanti, where Dante came to know her in person. She appears in the “Third Sphere” in his ''Paradiso'' (Canto IX, lines 13–65).〔Her brother, by contrast, appears in ''Inferno'', and Sordello in ''Purgatario''.〕 A fictionalised account of the courtship between Riccardo and Cunizza, one with quite a different outcome, forms the basis for Giuseppe Verdi's first opera, ''Oberto conte di San Bonifacio''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Oberto, Conte di San Bonifacio )〕 Cunizza is mentioned in both Robert Browning's ''Sordello'' and Ezra Pound's ''Cantos''. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cunizza da Romano」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
