56,95 kr. Puo un naso storto scatenare una crisi d'identita? Se ti chiami Vitangelo Moscarda allora si. Tutto ha inizio con un commento da parte della moglie, che gli fa notare come il suo naso penda un pochino verso destra, una cosa a cui Vitangelo non aveva mai fatto caso. A questo punto, l'uomo comincia a domandarsi quanti possano essere gli aspetti della sua vita percepiti diversamente dagli altri. E cosi nella sua mente scatta qualcosa, una valanga di dubbi e insicurezze che lo porteranno a compiere gesti assurdi e improbabili, volti a confrontare la percezione che lui ha di se con quella che hanno i suoi conoscenti. Un viaggio nella psiche di un personaggio complesso e straordinario, un romanzo dove Pirandello da sfogo a tutta la sua creativita.-

139,95 kr. Sulla scia de "e;Le mille e una notte"e; e del "e;Decameron"e; nasce "e;Novelle per un anno"e;, una raccolta di novelle che tocca gli apici della narrativa italiana del Novecento. Il relativismo pirandelliano si riflette in ogni racconto, ciascuno dei quali rappresenta un tassello di un insieme scomposto che unisce realismo, verismo e caos dell'imprevedibilita.Ambientati tra una Sicilia folcloristica e una Roma burocrate, questi piccoli gioielli della letteratura italiana riprendono le tematiche chiave della poetica di Pirandello, tra cui la maschera e la follia. Alcuni di questi racconti sono divenuti soggetto di opere teatrali. Tra i piu famosi ricordiamo "e;La giara"e;, "e;Il treno ha fischiato"e; e "e;Ciaula scopre la luna"e;.-

246,95 kr. Luigi Pirandello (28 June 1867 - 10 December 1936) was an Italian dramatist, novelist, poet, and short story writer whose greatest contributions were his plays. He was awarded the 1934 Nobel Prize in Literature for "his almost magical power to turn psychological analysis into good theatre." Pirandello''s works include novels, hundreds of short stories, and about 40 plays, some of which are written in Sicilian. Pirandello''s tragic farces are often seen as forerunners of the Theatre of the Absurd. In 1893, he wrote his first important work Marta Ajala, which was published in 1901 with the title L''Esclusa. In 1894, he published his first collection of short stories, Amori Senza Amore.

153,95 kr. Serafino is a typical Pirandellian anti-hero, a spectator rather than a participant in the tragi-comedy of human existence. Indeed he has the perfect job for it, that of a film cameraman. Serafino is an observer, an impersonal tool of a new industry based on make-believe. All he has to do is turn the handle of his camera and watch. He has no part in what is going on and is so removed from life that the mauling of an actor by a tiger cannot deflect him from filming the action. The Notebooks of Serafino Gubbio is set in Rome circa 1915, partly on a film set, partly in the city.

52,13 kr. Nobelprisvinnande italiensk författare målar upp livet i Italien i breda stråk i dessa noveller!I denna samling noveller möter vi några av författaren Luigi Pirandellos mest fascinerande karaktärer. Samtliga noveller är starkt förankrade i det italienska landskapet under sekelskiftet mellan ett upproriskt artonhundratal och ett turbulent nittonhundratal.Vi möter en ung man som tröttnar på livets katt-och-råttalek, en kyrkovaktmästare som förvånas över en lokal godsägares vägran att begrava sin fru i den vackra kistan - det kommer ju inte ta lång tid innan godsägaren själv följer efter; och en fladdermus som har gjort det till sitt livs uppdrag att störa teaterföreställningarna på Arena Nazionale.Pirandello balanserar ständigt mellan sorg, absurditet, och humor. Människors småaktighet blandas med tragik, och ingen läsare lämnas oberörd.I originalöversättning av Birgit Möller.Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936) var en italiensk författare, poet och dramatiker. 1934 tilldelades hans Nobelpriset i litteratur. Hans verk undersöker ett spektra av genrer. Pirandello har hyllats för sin förmåga att göra psykologiska analyser till intressant litteratur och dramatik, och den humor med vilken han tar sig an sina karaktärers öden.

258,95 kr. A masterful collection by a literary giant of the past century, rendered by one of our most esteemed Italian translators Regarded as one of Europe's great modernists, Pirandello was also a master storyteller, a fine observer of the drama of daily life with a remarkable sense of the crushing burdens of class, gender, and social conventions. Set in the author's birthplace of Sicily, where the arid terrain and isolated villages map the fragile interior world of his characters, and in Rome, where modern life threatens centuries-old traditions, these original stories are sun baked with the deep lore of Italian folktales. In "The Jar," a broken earthenware pot pits its owner, a quarrelsome landholder, against a clever inventor of a mysterious glue. "The Dearly Departed" tells the story of a young widow and her new husband on their honeymoon, haunted at every turn by the sly visage of the deceased. The scorned lover, the despondent widow, the intransigent bureaucrat, the wretched peasant--Pirandello's characters expose the human condition in all its fatalism, injustice, and raw beauty. For lovers of Calvino and Pasolini, these picturesque stories preserve a memory of an Italy long gone, but one whose recurring concerns still speak to us today.

108,95 kr. First performed in 1921 with Romans calling out 'Madhouse!' from the audience, "Six Characters in Search of an Author" has remained the most famous and innovative of Pirandello's plays. Often labeled a satirical tragicomedy, this play initiated the anti-illusionism movement of the early twentieth century, rejecting realism in favor of a more symbolic, dreamlike quality. When an acting company's rehearsal is interrupted by six family members who wish their life story to be enacted, the result is a masterpiece in the exploration of the nature of human personality. Both popular and controversial, this play blurred the lines of reality and illusion in unpredictable ways, ultimately influencing later playwrights like Beckett and Sartre with its bizarre blending of theatrical qualities. Such is the eloquence and depth of Pirandello's body of work that he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1934, just two years before his death, an honor worthy of a playwright whose plays had a subtle yet profound impact on much of the theatre that would follow. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and follows the translation of Edward Storer.

68,95 kr. Winner of the Nobel Prize in 1934, Luigi Pirandello was one of the most original and powerful dramatists of his time-the playwright par excellence of the conflict between illusion and reality. His plays dramatize with force and eloquence the loneliness and isolation of the individual both from society and from himself. In Six Characters in Search of an Author, his greatest work, these themes are played out with characteristic brilliance. First performed in 1921, the play concerns six living characters-family members embroiled in their own human drama-who come to a theater and demand that the manager and his actors stage their life story. Filled with both humor and despair, Six Characters in Search of an Author is Pirandello's most extraordinary achievement-as it explores the fundamentally absurd and tragic nature of the human condition. This Signet Classic edition includes an introduction by Eric Bentley, the widely acclaimed writer, translator, and international theater authority.

48,95 kr. "Sagen er den, at jeg – Gud skal vide, hvor jeg lider under det – allerede nu er død, oven i købet to gange, den første ganske vist ved en fejltagelse og den anden – ja, det er den historie, jeg nu skal fortælle."Mathias Pascal er fanget i et ligegyldigt job som assisterende bibliotekar ved en antikveret og uordentlig kommunal bogsamling, i et mislykket ægteskab og med en plagsom svigermor. Hans eneste glæder og kærlighed er hans tvillingedøtre og hans mor – som alle dør.En dag tager han i al hemmelighed til Monte Carlo, hvor han begynder at spille. Takket være et usædvanligt held har han snart vundet en formue, og da han på vejen hjem nogle dage senere læser i en avis, at man har fundet ham død i mølledammen på en af familiens ejendomme, ser han sit snit til begynde en ny tilværelse, og slår sig ned i Rom under navnet Adriano Meis. Det skal imidlertid vise sig ikke at være så let, og efterhånden opdager han, at hele hans liv og den frihed fra sin fortid, han troede at have opnået, er én stor løgn, og i virkeligheden et endnu værre fængsel end hans tidligere miserable tilværelse."Salig Mathias Pascal" er Luigi Pirandellos mest kendte roman, og som så mange af hans værker en studie i identitet og eksistens. I denne udgave er medtaget en senere efterskrift, "Digterfantasiens betænkeligheder", som Pirandello skrev i 1921, om forfatterens "pligt" til at sandsynliggøre sine figurers handlinger, selv om virkeligheden netop ikke altid er sandsynlig.

793,95 - 2.028,95 kr. In February 1925, the 58-year-old world-famous playwright Luigi Pirandello met Marta Abba, an unknown, beautiful actress less than half his age, and fell in love with her. She was to become, until his death in December 1936, not only his confidante but also his inspiring muse and artistic collaborator, helping him in his plans to reform Italian theater under the Fascist regime. Pirandello's love for the young actress was neither a literary infatuation nor a form of fatherly affection, but rather an unfulfilled, desperate passion that secretly consumed him during the last decade of his life. Bitterly disillusioned by the conditions of the theatrical world in Italy, Pirandello and Abba shared a dream of going abroad to earn their fortune and returning to Italy with the means to establish a national theater dedicated to high artistic standards. In March 1929, when Marta finally yielded to family pressure and left Pirandello alone in Berlin to revive her Italian stage career and to end rumors over their involvement, he endured a devastating heartbreak and fell into a life-threatening depression--more profound and long-lasting than any of his biographers have yet imagined. The hundreds of letters Pirandello wrote to Abba during these years are the only source that reveals the true story of his relentless torment. Selected, translated, and introduced here for the first time in any language, these powerful and moving documents reward the reader with the unique experience of living in intimacy with a profound poet of human pain. Here Pirandello encourages his beloved in her difficult career as actor/manager, rejoices in her triumphs, and desperately implores her to return to him. The letters are filled with glimpses of this major artistic personality at some of his most distinctive moments--such as the award of the Nobel Prize, his meetings with Mussolini, and Marta's long-dreamed-of success on Broadway--but they remain foremost an authentic confession of a Pirandello, without the mask of his art, telling the story of his real-life tragedy. In 1986, two years before she died, Marta Abba authorized the publication of the present correspondence so that the world might understand how deeply Pirandello had suffered. This English-language volume contains a selection of 164 letters from the complete edition of 552, which Princeton University Press will publish in cooperation with Mondadori, in the original Italian, in 1995.Originally published in 1994.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
