Course Description | This course examines a selection of canonical epic narratives, primarily by Pulci, Boiardo, Ariosto, and Tasso, as they pass from written verse to popular theater, especially Sicilian Opera dei Pupi and the Tuscan-Emilian epic Maggio (folk opera). Close analysis of episodes, scripts, and performances are combined with attention to the social, geographical, and historical context. Classes are in English, but knowledge of Italian is required since the performances and some readings are in Italian without available translations. |
