I know Dean has already kindly provided a synopsis, but for future reference, a great place to find out about any opera (and especially the more obscure ones--not that Rodelinda is obscure, just that Handel's operas are only recently back on the opera stage with any frequency) is the New Grove's Dictionary of Opera - which any good reference library should have a copy of for you to look stuff up in.
