Elisabetta, regina d'Inghilterra è un dramma in due atti di Gioachino Rossini su libretto di Giovanni Schmidt, rappresentato per la prima volta a Napoli nel 1815. La vicenda si svolge alla corte inglese durante il regno di Elisabetta I. Al ritorno vittorioso del generale Leicester dalla guerra contro la Scozia, la regina, segretamente innamorata di lui, lo onora e gli offre persino la corona come sposo. Leicester, però, ha sposato in segreto Matilde, figlia di Maria Stuarda, e il loro segreto viene tradito dal rivale Norfolc, geloso e ambizioso. Elisabetta scopre la verità , accusa i due di tradimento e li fa arrestare insieme al fratello di Matilde, Enrico.
Nel secondo atto la regina, ferita nell'orgoglio, offre a Matilde la grazia se rinuncerà per iscritto a Leicester; la giovane acconsente a malincuore, ma Leicester straccia il documento preferendo morire con lei. Mentre Norfolc trama una rivolta per liberare Leicester e uccidere la sovrana, Elisabetta si reca di nascosto nella prigione. Norfolc tenta di assassinarla, ma viene fermato da Leicester, Matilde ed Enrico. La regina condanna a morte il traditore e, commossa dalla fedeltà e dal coraggio degli innamorati, concede il perdono a Leicester e ai prigionieri scozzesi, rinunciando infine ai sentimenti terreni per dedicarsi interamente al trono.Elisabetta, Queen of England is a two-act opera by Gioachino Rossini, with a libretto by Giovanni Schmidt, which was first performed in Naples in 1815. The story is set at the English court during the reign of Elizabeth I. Upon General Leicester's victorious return from the war against Scotland, the queen, who is secretly in love with him, honours him and even offers him the crown as her husband. Leicester, however, has secretly married Matilde, daughter of Mary Stuart, and their secret is betrayed by his rival Norfolk, who is jealous and ambitious. Elizabeth discovers the truth, accuses the two of treason and has them arrested along with Matilda's brother, Henry.In the second act, the queen, her pride wounded, offers Matilda a pardon if she renounces Leicester in writing; the young woman reluctantly agrees, but Leicester tears up the document, preferring to die with her. Whilst Norfolk plots a revolt to free Leicester and kill the sovereign, Elizabeth secretly makes her way to the prison. Norfolk attempts to assassinate her, but is stopped by Leicester, Matilda and Enrico. The queen sentences the traitor to death and, moved by the lovers' loyalty and courage, grants pardon to Leicester and the Scottish prisoners, finally renouncing her earthly affections to devote herself entirely to the throne.
