L'Orazia

    Orazia is the only tragedy written by Pietro Aretino. 

    In the legendary battle of the Horatii from Rome against the Curiazi from the city of Alba , it seems that the situation is turning to the latter's favor. The duel between the six warriors, three Horatii and three Curiazi, was intended for the rebellion of the enemy city rebelled against the power of Rome and now, since the king does not want to shed much blood for nothing, he wants to end the clash with this duel.
