Summary "I tre tiranni" by Agostino Ricchi is a comedic play likely written in the early 17th century. The narrative unfolds amidst a backdrop of love and deception, focusing on the romantic entanglements and misadventures of several characters, including the lovesick Girifalco and the scheming Pilastrino. The play explores themes of desire, intrigue, and the follies of love, using characters to illustrate the impacts of fortune, love, and wealth. The beginning of the play introduces us to Girifalco, an elderly man lamenting his life and the trials of love, as he expresses his frustrations and desires regarding Lucia, the object of his affection. Pilastrino, a witty parasite, attempts to lighten Girifalco's mood by teasing him about his situation while simultaneously highlighting the absurdities of love and aging. The prologue, delivered by Mercurio, establishes the comedic tone and foreshadows the conflict among the titular three tyrants: Love, Fortune, and Gold, which are essential to the unfolding story. The characters are soon joined by a mix of servants and other nobles, setting the stage for comedic misunderstandings and dramatic encounters. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
