Giovanni Testori started working on I Promessi sposi alla prova in 1982 a fewmonths after he began the composition of the novel In Exitu; his collection ofarticles La maestà della vita was also published the same year. Although in differentways, these three works deal with the theme of plague and tackle a prominentfigure such as the archbishop of Milan Carlo Borromeo (1538-1584). Thisessay examines the connections between these works and traces the reasons forTestori’s rewriting of Alessandro Manzoni’s novel The Betrothed by analyzing his1965 preface to Carlo Borromeo’s Memoriale ai milanesi (written after the plaguein 1576-77) and his unpublished play La peste di Milano (1975).
