The Mistress Of The Inn: By Carlo Goldoni, Translated For The Stage By Robert Bethune - Couverture souple
Synopsis
The Mistress of the Inn is fine watch. You wind it up; it runs. Waves of comic tension build to a near-riot, then subside to a gentle, calm, reflective ending. All but one man share a new understanding of love. Much has been made, can be made, and will be made of Goldoni and the commedia dell'arte. Too much can be made of this. You don't need to know anything about commedia to understand, enjoy and appreciate it. To be sure, the characters are all related to commedia character types, but so are most of the world's characters. These people are not masks, they are people, and there is no reason to try to tie them down to a tradition which they have obviously transcended. The essence of the play: love is explosive. Put a powder charge under somebody's heart and blow it sky-high, but watch out if you do, because the shrapnel is as likely to hit you as anybody else. Love is a force greater than any one person who might manipulate it, and people in love are people out of control.

À propos de l'auteur
Carlo Goldoni (1707-1793), more than any other single writer, transformed the non-literary Italian comedy of the commedia dell'arte into a scripted, literary form of enduring value. He offers us a wise and surprisingly gentle view of human beings and human character, always comic, but always true to the broad experience of human life. His plays are regarded not only as masterpieces of Italian drama, but as masterpieces of world literature as well.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Though the odds are against her as a single woman running a business in 1753, Mirandolina's guests are impressed by her hospitality and business sense. Her gentlemen guests are so impressed with her, in fact, that they tend to become infatuated with her! That is, until the Baron of Ripafratatta comes to stay at the inn. Incensed by the Baron's boastful contempt for women, Mirandolina vows to teach him a lesson by making him fall in love with her.' A play. 219 pages. 8 x 10 inches. Size: 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall.
