The Ball
Author: George ChapmanGiambattista Della Porta, Dramatist
Author: Louise George ClubbPublisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400874920
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
Although Renaissance scholars generally agree that Della Porta was the finest comic playwright of his generation in Italy, no detailed analysis of these plays and of their considerable influence outside Italy has previously appeared. One of the most famous men of his time in the field of scientific investigation, Della Porta wrote plays for relaxation and, on occasion, to camouflage controversial aspects of his scientific research from the Inquisitions. Today his works in science are largely forgotten and his right to fame rests on the plays. This book brings together the available facts of Della Porta's rich and often mysterious life and closely examines his dramatic works as part of the Italian literary scene in late Renaissance.
