The Italian Tragedy in the Renaissance : Cultural Realities and Theatrical Innovations Hardback
by Salvatore Di Maria
Hardback
Description
This book is about the Renaissance revitalization of classical drama.
Using a cultural and a theatrical approach, it shows how Italian playwrights made ancient tragedy relevant to their audiences.
The book challenges the traditional critical approach to the Italian Renaissance tragedy as a mere literary work, and calls attention to the complementary function of the theatrical text, which is OOreconstructedOO from the stage directions embedded in the discourse of the characters.
