Il modello della recitazione naturalista nella drammaturgia di Pirandello

Abstract

Starting from the Naturalism' ideal acting, Pirandello came to aconception - particularly manifest in the last period of his dramaturgy - which seems to presage the mise en scène without the actor participation, by resorting to puppets or marionettes which come to life and act the theatrical text by themselves. In any case the actor behaviour assumes - according to Claudio Vicentini - the possession peculiarities, and the performance turns into a rite in which the actor, as an officiant, uttering the text clauses, si able to evoke the charactersdirectly, in visible forms which appear not only in him, but also around him.
