Don Renato: An Ideal Content is a book written by Frederick William Rolfe, also known as Baron Corvo. It is a semi-autobiographical novel that tells the story of Don Renato, a fictionalized version of Rolfe himself. The book is set in Venice and follows Don Renato’s life as a writer and artist, his relationships with various women, and his struggles with his own identity and sexuality. The novel is known for its lyrical and poetic prose, as well as its exploration of themes such as art, beauty, and desire. It is considered a classic of queer literature and has been praised for its unique style and unconventional narrative structure. Overall, Don Renato: An Ideal Content is a captivating and thought-provoking work of fiction that offers a glimpse into the mind of one of the most enigmatic writers of the early 20th century.Our artificers imitate their masters, or their antecessors. It is human to evade operose labor of body or mind. Labor of mind facilitly may be evaded by imitation: for, so, sollicitude of mind conducive to invention becomes supervacuous. Hence, artificers of a negligent nature follow traditions and canons of the schools. How many have intended themselves to imitate the inaccessible Messer Alessandro Filipepi?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
