Polemiche sopra i due massimi sistemi: Galileo e il Piccolo Teatro

Abstract

The paper, based on phd dissertation about the relationship between Piccolo Theatre of Milan and local audience community, analyzes the debate rised by catholics politicians around the show Life of Galileo (1963), on the most important italian newspapers and in City Council. These protests, though being speciously raised against that specific show, were an attack towards the artistic independence of Piccolo Theatre, aiming for more pluralism in a public institution financed by the City.
