This study argues for a gradual change in the self-conception of the spectatorship during the two"golden" centuries of Italian dramatic literature, outlining the dramatic strategies by which theatre called into being an adjusting audience capable of both aesthetics and political analysis. The author shows that, contrary to expectations, the public's progressive centrality to the theatre helped to create rather than hinder the playwrights's self-assertion and expression. At the same time, the discussion moves beyond spectatorship per se to consider a range of cultural assumptions and practices. These include the emergent public sphere, the power structures and social and cultural politics in Italy."--$cProvided by publisher 410 0$aToronto Italian studies. 606 $aItalian drama$yTo 1700$xHistory and criticism 607 $aItaly$2fast 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 610 $aart. 610 $aaudience. 610 $adrama. 610 $adramaturgy. 610 $ahistory of the theatre. 610 $aitalian history. 610 $aitalian literature. 610 $aitalian theatre. 610 $aliterature. 610 $aperformance studies. 610 $apublic sphere. 610 $aspectators. 610 $atheatre studies. 615 0$aItalian drama$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a792.0945 686 $acci1icc$2lacc 700 $aKorneeva$b Tatiana, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0476642 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793800503321 996 $aThe Dramaturgy of the Spectator$93718709 997 $aUNINA
