Portrait of the Artist and His Mother in Twentieth-Century Italian Culture examines how the strong mother-son relationship not only affected, but actually shaped the work of Italian artists as different as Pirandello, Carlo Levi, Buzzati, Pasolini, Fellini, concluding on with a look at mammismo/vitellonismo in some Italian film comedies.

This study examines the later plays of Luigi Pirandello - those he wrote for his actress and muse Marta Abba - in light of the publication of their correspondence. It traces his entire creative process, revealing how his perception of women shaped his philosophy of art and life.
