Secret Sharers In Italian Comedy: From Machiavelli To Goldoni (Society: 7)
Jackson I. Cope
Modern vernacular comedy took shape in early sixteenth-century Italy with the many plays adapted from and modeled on Plautine New Comedy. This work demonstrates how Italian dramatists reacted to the wide success of this genre with a counterparadigm, a comedy that exploits secrecy as form. It examines this major development in Italian theater.
