Commedia Dell'arte: A Guide to the Primary and Secondary Literature

Commedia Dell'arte: A Guide to the Primary and Secondary Literature

Thomas F. Heck
4/5 ( ratings)
The commedia dell'arte, which arose in the 16th century, was a form of professional improvised theatre. It gave the world such comic figures as Harlequin, Pulcinella, Pierrot, Dottore, and other stock characters. Its only remaining textual sources are plot outlines, called scenarios. This book summarizes, in English, virtually all the literature on the commedia dell'arte through 1987.
