Sommario/riassunto

The texts of Luigi Pirandello, one of the literary giants of this century, have been subject to widely different readings by successive generations of critics. These essays present an up-to-date re-evaluation of Pirandello's works, which include poetry, novels, short stories, plays, essays, letters, and memoirs. The book examines the recent upsurge of interest in Pirandello and offers outstanding material for courses in Italian studies, comparative literature, theatre, and the humanities.
