Full textLa tesi propone l’edizione critica e commentata dell’ Ismenia, opera reale e pastorale (Bologna 1638-1639), ultima ‘creazione’ drammatica data alle stampe da GiovanBattista Andreini (1576-1654) nel corso della sua pluridecennale carriera di attore e autore principalmente , ma non solo, teatrale. Il testo è stato ricostruito sia criticamente sia storicamente, attraverso un’attenta collazione di tutti i testimoni noti della tradizione (a stampa) dell’opera, in seguito a un accurato censimento delle principali biblioteche e risorse archivistiche italiane ed estere che ha portato anche alla riscoperta di preziosi materiali manoscritti dell’autore (inseriti in appendice), utili a illuminare proprio il giro d’anni che interessa l’officina dell’Ismenia, a cavallo tra la metà degli anni Trenta e i primi anni Quaranta del Seicento– gettando così luce su quelle che sono sempre state considerate le principali ‘zone d’ombra’ dell’attività e biografia andreiniana, proprio al centro, anzi, nel cuore del secolo. L’Ismenia si presenta dunque come il canto del cigno di un autore barocco pronto a sfoderare tutto il proprio «stravagante» genio creativo, dando vita a un ‘monstrum’ drammatico capace di dispiegare il folto arsenale di risorse letterarie e drammatiche andreiniane, maturate nell’arco di una vita intera spesa nel e per il teatro: l’audace contaminazione non solo di generi, sotto il segno del tragicomico, ma anche di registri formali e linguistici (con l’alternanza tra l’idioma letterario dei personaggi ‘nobili’ e i dialetti delle figure riprese dalla commedia dell’arte), la brulicante rete di fonti e rapporti intertestuali, perfino interdisciplinari, che sanno avvicinare l’Ismenia tanto al mondo del nascente dramma in musica quanto agli intramontabili modelli romanzesco-cavallereschi,1allo stesso tempo forsegià guardando, con una sorta di premonizione, al teatro inglese shakespeariano, nominalmente La tempesta, questo stesso pure nutrito di quel fertile ‘sottobosco’ dell’improvvisa che emerge fra le righe di questa fabula regia. Si spera così di rendere, se non giustizia, almeno testimonianza al valore di un testo che perfino rispetto alle misure del secolo barocco si può solo che definire, insieme ad Andreini, «non ordinario».
Gargiulo, Jennifer. "Vivere sul serio Eduardo De Filippo and the art of life /." University of Sydney, 2006. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/2169.
Full textThis thesis offers the first English translation of Eduardo De Filippo’s last play, Gli esami non finiscono mai (1973). It analyzes the play in the context of the dramatist’s career and describes the philosophical shift that took place in Eduardo’s dialectic as he progressed from a post-war, neorealist drama like Napoli milionaria! toward the existential reflections present in his last play. Unlike previous studies, this work concentrates on Eduardo’s philosophical journey from neorealism to existential query and identifies the factors that influenced his thinking process. To this end, I have evaluated the plays most relevant to the development of his philosophy and the socio-political context in which they were written. The influence of the Neapolitan traditional dialect theater, along with that of Luigi Pirandello, his American contemporaries, Arthur Miller and Eugene O’Neill, and William Shakespeare, is also examined. Important social issues that directly affected the author, such as the struggle in Italy for the legalization of divorce and the plight of children born out of wedlock, are highlighted to illustrate how they contributed to the disillusionment and pessimism present in Eduardo’s last play. From the rather hopeful ending of Napoli milionaria! Eduardo was reduced at the end of his life to sheer desperation in Gli esami non finiscono mai. Italy had changed but it had not moved on. By focusing on the playwright’s final play, this thesis offers a new perspective on a twentieth century dramatist who is much more complex than is commonly acknowledged. De Filippo is revealed as a dramatist who transcended the Neapolitan comic theatrical traditions he sprang from and created a theater of political and social engagement that endures today.
Wagner, Stefanie. "Dario Fos "Morte accidentale di un anarchico" und seine Adaptationen in Frankreich und Deutschland." Universität Potsdam, 2012. http://opus.kobv.de/ubp/volltexte/2012/6027/.
Full textDario Fo (Premio Nobel 1997) è uno dei drammaturghi e capocomici più innovatori del teatro italiano del ‘900. Verranno mostrate le tappe più importanti del suo percorso artistico che attestano una ricerca incessante di approcci innovativi per la concezione e la prassi teatrali: una lotta acerrima contro le convenzioni del teatro letterario, borghese, sovvenzionato e fruito in modo passivo. Comunque, cercando di ristabilire l’evento teatrale come esperienza olistica, Fo e la sua compagnia si ritrovano spesso in pieno conflitto con la realtà socio-politica e i suoi rappresentanti. Era anche questo il caso del pezzo "Morte accidentale di un anarchico" (1970) di cui questo lavoro presenta un’analisi. Scritta poco dopo la strage di Piazza Fontana (dicembre 1969) e quindi a quell’epoca di scottante attualità politica, questa farsa grottesca fece sorgere grandi tumulti e rimane finora uno dei pezzi più rappresentati, anche all’estero. Pertanto, questo lavoro contempla non solo la produzione, l’allestimento e la ricezione del pezzo in Italia, ma tiene anche conto degli adattamenti e della loro ricezione in Francia e in Germania. Verrà mostrata la sfida per gli adattamenti stranieri che risulta dall’italianità del teatro di Fo (ricorso alla tradizione del teatro popolare italiano, trattamento di fatti socio-politici quotidiani etc.). In questo contesto verranno spiegati anche elementi specifici della traduzione per la scena e indicata qualche alternativa che anche la compagnia di Fo già utilizza.

Full textIn the 21st century, the word migration is increasingly used everywhere on the planet, often with dramatic connotations. How does literature play its role in the restitution of this major fact of our time? Recent writings such as: Non dirmi che hai paura by Giuseppe Catozzella, Nel mare ci sono i coccodrilli by Fabio Geda, Cannibales by Mahi Bine, Mbëkë mi by Abasse Ndione, Mur Méditerranée de Louis-Philippe Dalembert et Exit West by Mohsin Hamid answer this question and propose a new narrative and aesthetic mode of representation of reality. If our gaze focuses on the literary representation of the migration journey, it also embraces a curiosity for contemporary arts and cinema. In particular, two Italian authors are important in the formulation of our literary proposal even if their writings do not come from literature stricto sensu. One is the journalist Alessandro Leogrande, the first one to question the issue of shipwrecks; the second one is the medical examiner Cristina Cattaneo whose approach restores the identity of those migrants who died at sea. These are literary texts at the crossroads of several genres, perspectives and approaches whose entanglement allows us to propose a new reading of migration, and especially about literature. Geocriticism provides us clear answers to this unprecedented challenge and helps us to deconstruct the stereotypes prevailing on this subject. Its strong ability lies in the way it studies, analyzes and interprets the spatial referent in the literary work. The analysis goes through anthropology, sociology, geography and also law, relying in particular on the work of Michel Agier, its contributions allows us to conceive migration from a larger, cosmopolite, perspective.

Full textThe research focuses on the history of Italian neorealism and the historical context in which it developed. Similarly, it analyzes the characteristics of its aesthetics that implied a rupture with previous realistic aesthetics. Considering neorrealism only as a criticism or social chronicle, some critics and philosophers such as André Bazin and Gilles Deleuze, divulged its contributions in the History of Cinema both for its innovations in staging as for being the outset of a cinema that uses cinematographic time as a fundamental expressive element. Some of the directors of this movement in the decade of the fifties as Roberto Rossellini, Fellini and Michelangelo Antonioni started the movement from a neo-realistic aesthetic to modern cinema granting especial characteristic to cinematographic time in the author cinema of that time, which Deleuze labeled as the Time-Image. The authoritativeness of these directors in contemporary filmmaking is not fortuitous: they underline a territory that will be later imitate by young directors interested in the expressive and poetic effects of the cinematographic time. This is the case for some of the most interesting directors of Latin America during the first decade of the year 2000. This is the case of Argentinean director Lisandro Alonso.

Full textMedieval universe took an important place in the Italian poetic culture from the 16th to the 18th century. Emblems of this universe, Ariosto and Tasso’s epic poems, imitated of Homer’s, upgraded to most popular histories of the Italians theatres of the 17th and 18th centuries. The Middle Ages’ representation in Opera between 1690 and 1730, showed a diversity of esthetics but dramatic and poetic figures too. Thanks to the Accademia dell’Arcadia, the renovation of the libretto led to consider new prospects of its exploitation. Zeno developed the new vision of Middle Ages contrary to Metastasio. Supporting by French tragedy, this renovation unified with strength poetical and musical art. The aria symbolized the meeting point of affects and their musical representations. It contributed to the celebrity of Vinci’s and Hasse’s Artaserse (1730). These two operas hastened the decline of medieval subjects and installed a new lyric model

Full textThe subject of this dissertation is the influence of french tragic theater on italian opera between 1690 (foundation of the Accademia dell’Arcadia) and 1731 (first performance of Demetrio, first libretto written by Metastasio for the court of Vienna). During this period, the model of french tragedy influenced significantly the evolution of italian opera, particularly thanks to the numerous adaptations of french tragedies by the libretto writers contemporary to Apostolo Zeno. In order to analyse the reasons for this phenomenon, it is essential to distinguish between the direct influence of the contemporary corpus of tragedies on the modes of writing of the librettists, and the more general influence of french literature on the literary debate in Italy of the same time. The ultimate goal of the present work is to determine if and how these two modes of influence may have merged to generate a substancial reform of the dramma per musica

Full textTragedy was a genre that flourished in Italy in the 16th and 17th century of which numerous examples were dedicated to the eponymous heroines. Created in the process of rewriting (réécriture) of myths, historical narratives and various religious and literary sources, those characters bring up questions concerning the relation between women and power encouraging authors and their public to take part in the debates that are crucial for the contemporary society. Through more or less explicit literary means, tragic theater becomes a political theater for it raises the city to the dignity of the spectacle that reflects on its civic and cultural mechanisms

Full textThe opera Arsinoe travelled throughout Europe from 1676 to 1705. From its creation in Bologna until its performance at Drury-Lane (London), the work developed according to local operatic practice. The first alterations were made for the Venetian stage, when one character was replaced by another, and where new scenes were added to satisfy the Venetians’ excessive taste for machinery. This lyrical drama was revived in London thirty years later. The major change consisted in Motteux’s translation of Stanzani’s text into English. However, the recitative style was preserved to give birth to the first opera “after the Italian manner”, Arsinoe, Queen of Cyprus. This opera “after the Italian manner” can certainly be seen as a bridge between the English semi-opera of the Restoration and the Italian opera which was to prevail on the London stage from 1711 onwards, mainly through its principal exponent: Haendel

This master degree main objective is the analysis and the study of the dramatical workmanship composition Six Personages in Search of an Author , witch is studied here as Seis Personagens em Busca de um Autor by Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936), staged for the first time in 1921, in Rome / Italy, reaching success in the entire world and deeply influencing the art of the teatral representation of the century XX. The objectives of the research send to analyze the modern elements gifts in the text Six Personages in Search of an Author and to the verification of the specific items on this modern pirandellian text in debate with modernity and contemporality. Basically, here, the analysis if guideline in the reflection on the existence of a tension between tradition and renewal, characteristic of the modernity in general way and specific way of the workmanship of Pirandello. It is treated, therefore, of formal examining the renewal as crisis of the tradition while factor of revelation and denudation as crisis of the modern world that is present like a mean form in the workmanship of Pirandello and in the Modern Drama . The literary analysis of the pirandellian text was based, initially, in the theoretical debate on the question of the literary sorts for the definition of the concept of Modern Drama . For this issue, this thought followed a line that begins with Hegel, goes to Georg Lukács and finishes with Peter Szondi. Advancing in this way, it was turned back to the proper theoretical texts of Pirandello, mainly O Humorismo , wrote in 1903, that involves the modernity of the drama and how it would be articulated, later, in an artistic form. A critical historical pillar helped to support the recital of this work that had as purpose understand and context this workmanship of Pirandello in its time and the present time. It was established, a parallel between two authors: the Italian, contemporary Pirandello, Antonio Gramsci and the german, Walter Benjamin. This debate in allowed in such a way to invest them in the analysis of the tension between form and content, renewing the art of drama of Pirandello culturally (as content) and the respective esthetic way (as form)
Trata, a presente dissertação, da análise e do estudo da obra dramática Seis Personagens em Busca de um Autor, de Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936), encenada pela primeira vez em 1921, em Roma, Itália, alcançando sucesso no mundo todo e influenciando profundamente a dramaturgia do século XX. Os objetivos da pesquisa remetem à analise dos elementos modernos presentes no texto Seis Personagens em Busca de um Autor e à verificação das especificidades desse moderno pirandelliano em debate com a modernidade e a contemporaneidade. Basicamente, aqui, a análise se pauta na reflexão sobre a existência de uma tensão entre tradição e renovação, característica da modernidade de modo geral e de modo específico da obra de Pirandello. Trata-se, portanto, de formalmente examinar a renovação como crise da tradição enquanto fator de revelação e desnudamento de uma crise do mundo moderno que se apresentaria como uma forma fundamental na obra de Pirandello e no Drama Moderno . A análise literária do texto pirandelliano alicerçou-se, inicialmente, no debate teórico sobre a questão dos gêneros literários para a definição do conceito de Drama Moderno . Para tanto, esse pensamento seguiu uma linha que parte de Hegel, passa por Gyorgy Lukács e se finaliza com Peter Szondi. Avançando neste caminho, voltou-se aos próprios textos teóricos de Pirandello, principalmente O Humorismo, escrito em 1903, que compreende a modernidade do drama e como se articularia, posteriormente, numa forma artística. Sustentou ainda a fundamentação deste trabalho um pilar crítico-histórico que teve como finalidade compreender e contextualizar a obra de Pirandello em seu tempo e na atualidade. Estabeleceu-se, assim, um paralelo entre dois autores: o italiano, contemporâneo a Pirandello, Antonio Gramsci e o alemão Walter Benjamin. Esse debate nos permitiu investir na análise da tensão entre forma e conteúdo, renovando a dramaturgia de Pirandello tanto culturalmente (como conteúdo) quanto esteticamente (como forma)

Full textThe purpose of this thesis was to investigate reception of Italian playwright, Vittorio Alfieri, in Polish literature and culture from 18th to 20th century with particular emphasis on first half of the 19th century. Alfieri was cultural father of Italian Risorgimento, whose works were also significant pattern to Polish Romantics. The presence of Alfieri in Poland required special researches. It was based on several issues, such as political situation in country, periods in history of literature, notable translators. The reception of his works has evolved. It was worth noting, that his popularity in Poland proved how ambiguous dramatist he was. He became the strong inspiration for Polish playwrights (Alojzy Feliński, Franciszek Wężyk, Antoni Hoffmann, Juliusz Słowacki). One of the purposes of thesis was to understand particular style of Alfieri’s writing. Finally, the meaning of Polish translations (in source documents – manuscripts and printed texts, as well as in journals) was examined in the study. Thesis contained five chapters. The first chapter was dedicated to the state of research on the Italian playwright. Comparison of critica alfieriana in Poland and Italy led to the conclusion that there was several thematic fields in state of research on Alfieri. Taking in consideration historical and literary reflection it was observed, that the Polish state of research, although not such extensive, was equal to the Italian studies in respect of maturity and conscientiousness considerations of subject. The second chapter focused on memories and diaries from voyages of Polish artists to Italy. The study inspected the issue of the role, frequency and method of disclosure of Italian playwright. The emergence of Alfieri in notes of Niemcewicz, Czartoryski, Rautenstrauchowa, Wiszniewski or Siemieński revealed the deep reflection on the works of Alfieri, made by the authors above mentioned. In the third chapter was considered the presence of Alfieri in the Polish journals in the 19th century. The study of the Polish press was dedicated to establish the chronology of the occurrence of Alfieri in theatrical reviews. The results of the study allowed to place in context the work of the Italian playwright in Polish scenic reflection. In the fourth chapter was examined the problem of Alfieri’s inspiration in Polish art of drama in the nineteenth-century. Early Polish dramas of this period remained under the strong influence of Alfieri. It was worth noting term “alfierism” in Polish tragedy. It was found the whole generation of the authors inspired by Alfieri’s style of writing. Tragedies such as Bolesław Śmiały, Don Karlos, Barbara Radziwiłłówna had definitely the concept of Alfieri’s drama. Moreover these tragedies constituted Feliński, Hoffmann and Wężyk as the firsts “alfierists”. The final, fifth chapter, was focused on Polish translations of Alfieri in source documents. Furthermore, research on Alfieri’s language primarily contained capturing his literary manners. It has been difficult for translators, even notables, to struggle with language of Alfieri, sometimes inaccessible, incompatible with a meter line of tragedy. The analysis of texts concerning Alfieri (reviews, articles, memories from journeys, essays, plays) allowed to examine reception of Alfieri in Poland. It was discovered, that in Poland in 19th century initiated the whole “generation of alfierists”, playwrights inspired by Vittorio Alfieri. Firstly, reception was connected with the historical, political and linguistic conditions of his tragedies. What is more, the appropriate method of reading of his works revealed new chapter of popularity of cultural father of Italian Risorgimento in Poland.

Full textD'Annunzio and Pirandello both as men and as artists can only be placed at the opposite ends of the cultural scene of their times. Yet, it is in myth that their antithetical works finally converge. This study, therefore, analyzes myth in three of D'Annunzio's tragedies where the mythical dimension is more apparent (The dead city, Iorio/s daughter and Fedra) and in the trilogy of myths by Pirandello, which brings his work to its ultimate expression. For both authors the need for myth is born of the painful awareness of modern man's crisis: relative values, a divided personality and no sense of direction. In the timeless and universal dimension of myth it is still possible to achieve totality. The Junghian theory of the archetypes of the collective unconscious, of which myths are cultural manifestations, has proved to be an analytical tool of great importance. By giving access to the deepest level of the texts beyond their cultural and historical layers, it brings to light the otherwise elusive meaning of archetypal images and motives, revealing the true nature of art to be not just the work of an individual but also of collective man. The works, different as they may be, when compared in this perspective have nevertheless yielded some important common conclusions, not only on D'Annunzio and Pirandello as writers but also on their role within the society they lived in and, by extension, our own. For both of them myth, even in a modern context, means essentially the overcoming of the fragmentation, the relativity and the mediocrity of contemporary life. However, in the process of recapturing this mythical dimension, myth itself is bound to be modified. Because it mirrors the modern psyche, it not only interprets its deepest present needs, but also points to its future ones. The central position occupied in their works by the subconscious, emerging from behind the powerful image of the primordial Great Mother, points the way to future psychological development and to the need to regain access to the deepest levels of the human psyche so that its opposing forces, subconscious and consciousness, can meet and be reconciled.
