The composer was always attracted by plots with a dynamic development of action and clashes of passions - Hugo's drama formed the basis of the opera, which Verdi also wrote rapidly, in forty days at the beginning of 1851. At the insistence of censorship, changes were made to the libretto - the historical figures of King Francis I of France and his jester Triboulet were replaced by the Duke of Mantua and the jester with the fictitious name Rigoletto.
