Bertarido is believed dead, vanquished in battle by Grimoaldo, who now tries to usurp the throne. He forces Rodelinda to agree to marry him by threatening to kill her son. The faithful Unulfo brings Bertarido to Rodelinda in secret, but Grimoaldo discovers them together and imprisons Bertarido. However, with Unulfo's help, he escapes and is in time to prevent Grimoaldo being killed by the treacherous Garibaldo. Grimoaldo is pardoned and Bertarido and Rodelinda happily reunited.

by April FitzLyon

Ivan Turgenev's play A Month in the Country - published in 1855 - is largely autobiographical in that it portrays the equivocal position he held in the household of Pauline Viardot, the famous opera singer and her husband. In 1856, while staying at their country house in the Brie region of France, he was visited by his compatriot and fellow writer Fet. April FitzLyon gives an account of that meeting.
