  • Rodamonte (o Rodomonte) es uno de los personajes principales en los poemas de épica románticos italianos Orlando innamorato de Matteo Maria Boiardo y Orlando furioso de Ludovico Ariosto. Es el rey de Sarza en Argel y el dirigente del ejército sarraceno que asedia a Carlomagno en París. Está enamorado de Doralice, princesa de Granada, pero ella se escapa con su rival . Al no conseguir la atención de Doralice, intenta seducir la Isabella pero en el proceso la mata por equivocación. Por remordimientos Rodomonte construye un puente en su memoria y fuerza a todo el que lo cruza a homenajear la Isabella. Cuando el "desnudo y loco" Orlando llega al puente es Rodomonte quien lo echa río abajo. Finalmente Rodomonte aparece en el casamiento de Bradamante y Rugiero acusándolo de traición al convertirse al cristianismo. Los dos luchan en duelo y Rodamonte muere. Rodamonte es también sinónimo de fuerza y valor. El rey de España dio el apelativo "Rodamonte" a Luigi Gonzaga por su resistencia extraordinaria.​ (es)

Finally, Rodomonte appears at the wedding of Bradamante and Ruggiero and accuses Ruggiero of treason for converting to Christianity and abandoning the Saracen cause. The two fight a duel and Rodomonte is killed. Rodomonte's prowess is matched only by his arrogance and boasting. His name is the source of the expression rodomontade, meaning "boastful, bragging talk". Rodomonte is also synonymous with strength and courage. The King of Spain gave the appellative "Rodomonte" to Luigi Gonzaga for his extraordinary strength. Rodomonte first appears in Book 2, Canto i of Orlando innamorato. Boiardo was said to be so pleased at the invention of his name that he had the church bells rung in celebration. Boiardo, in Book 2, Canto xiv, says Rodomonte is the son of Ulieno, and a descendant of the Biblical giant Nimrod, from whom he inherited his massive sword, which was too heavy for an ordinary man to lift.
