Florante recounts his life—his happy childhood, his studies in Athens where he met his rival, Adolfo , and his return to Albania where he became a celebrated general. Adolfo, driven by intense jealousy and a lust for power, takes advantage of Florante’s absence during a war to stage a coup. He kills King Linceo, Laura’s father, and declares himself the new ruler. Adolfo then sends for Florante under the guise of a peace offering, only to imprison and exile him.
