Several Italian adaptations are already known, among which a dramma per musica, La forza compassionevole,written by Antonio Salvi and staged in Leghorn in 1694. In the same year, another opera based on Lope’s drama was staged in Venice (as Alfonso I) and in Naples (under the title Alfonso il Sesto re di Castiglia). Two years later, this last version was revived in Palermo, again, as in Naples, to celebrate the birthday of King Charles II of Spain. None of these three librettos indicates Lope’s authorship nor it has been hypothesized until now. However, the plot of all librettos is clearly based on Lope’s play. This chapter aims at illustrating the relation between the librettos for these three performances and La fuerza lastimosa. It also discusses the context of all the stagings and identifies some of the existing musical sources. Finally, it argues that Alessandro Scarlatti could be the author of the Neapolitan score. 2022-06-01T12:17:23Z 2022-06-01T12:17:23Z 2020 chapter ONIX_20220601_9788855181501_434 2704-5919 9788855181501 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/56251 ita Studi e saggi application/pdf Attribution 4.0 International 14597.pdf https://books.fupress.com/doi/capitoli/978-88-5518-150-1_12 Firenze University Press 10.36253/978-88-5518-150-1.12 10.36253/978-88-5518-150-1.12 bf65d21a-78e5-4ba2-983a-dbfa90962870 9788855181501 209 26 Florence open access
