Abstract (EN)

This thesis compares and contrasts the madrigals of two central figures of late Renaissance music; Carlo Gesualdo and Claudio Monteverdi. The framework for the works in the discussion is limited to the shared texts that they both composed in their madrigal collections between 1587 and 1611. The analysis is focused on rhetoric, harmonic, syntactic and figurative elements and pays tribute to the historical musical background of the period.
