    Early Theatre 11.2 (2008) Issues in Review M.A. Katritzky, Maria Ines Aliverti, Rosalind Kerr, Erith Jaffe- Berg, Stefano Mengarelli, and Robert Henke New Developments in Commedia Research The Commedia dell'Arte: New Perspectives and New Documents The launch of a new journal on the commedia dell'arte, the first exclusively dedicated to this subject, marks an auspicious time to assess this exception- ally productive field, and to introduce the new, exciting findings presented in the following five articles. This introduction considers them in the context of current developments in commedia research. It reviews the annual, peer- reviewed journal Commedia dell’Arte, Annuario internazionale’s 2008 inaug- ural issue (ISSN: 1974-1294) and key commedia dell'arte-related publica- tions postdating the period covered by its bibliography (from 2000 to 2006).1 This substantial bibliography amply reflects the field’s traditional strengths in archival researches into visual as well as textual documents. Despite an emphasis necessarily on Italian publications and Italian performances, it also reflects the field’s increasingly healthy productivity in multidisciplinary trans- national and comparative studies. Already from its second entry — Frances Barasch on ‘Italian Actresses in Shakespeare’s World’ — it reminds early Brit- ish theatre scholars of the rich relevance of commedia dell'arte studies to their interests. Commedia dell’Arte, Annuario internazionale’s editors are two of Italy’s most respected theatre historians, Siro Ferrone (University of Florence) and Anna Maria Testaverde (University of Bergamo). Ferrone’s latest monograph, Arlecchino: vita e avventure di Tristano Martinelli attore, engagingly summar- izes his monumental documentary researches into the creator of the Harle- quin stage role, Tristano Martinelli (1557–1630).2 An initial chapter outlines Martinelli’s extensive early tours in Europe with the mixed gender troupe of his brother Drusiano Martinelli, which may have put the first actresses on the London stage in 1578.

Katritzky Stefanelo Botarga and Pickelhering: Fishy Italian and English Stage Clowns in Spain and Germany Juliet’s wishful pronouncement on the name of the rose applies even less to comic stage names than to flowers.1 Cultural expectations shape every aspect of our per- ceptions, and the funny business of early modern travelling actors is enhanced by well-chosen stage names; even more so if they have strong regional associations. With reference to new textual and iconographic evidence, this article focuses on the origins, transnational diffusion and significance of two stage names based on fish specialities with specific regional associations: as names, as Italian and English stage roles and as popular stock festival costumes, both within their Spanish- and German-speaking host regions, and beyond.

This proposal stems from my desire to explore improvisational comedy theoretically and practically. The genre of commedia dell’arte is not only timeless, but continues to further our ability to create characters and scenario for future projects as the root of improvisation. By coupling research on commedia components (character, lazzi and scenario) with the creation of an improvisational troupe, a commedia piece will be developed, documented and performed.

  • Modernist Meanings in the European Renovation of Commedia
    MODERNIST MEANINGS IN THE EUROPEAN RENOVATION OF COMMEDIA DELL’ARTE DRAMA Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Anita Jean Saha, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Spanish and Portuguese The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Eugenia Romero, Advisor Stephen Summerhill, Co-advisor Rebecca Haidt Copyright by Anita Jean Saha 2014 Abstract This dissertation explores the rediscovery of commedia dell’arte theatre in Europe during the Modernist era (approximately 1890-1930) by dramatists and theatre directors, which led to its usage as a tool for individual experimentation and general escape from the anxieties associated with the changing political environment. The appropriation of commedia dell’arte theatre was, for many theatre practitioners, the perfect structure with which to counteract the dominant realist aesthetic that was prevalent throughout Europe at the time. Although these Modernist commedia-based plays and productions were generally created as art-for-art’s sake, this is not the case everywhere, as evidenced by some of the themes, both overt and masked, in the works of a few Spanish dramatists. Using literary history as the theoretical framework, this dissertation contends that Modernist commedia-based dramas serve as an appropriate point of departure for comprehending literary reactions to, and reproductions of, the revolutions in technology, politics, and social practices that contributed to the modern order. While representations of cynical clowns, such as Harlequin, were mostly apolitical, the pessimism that dominates the farces, the pantomimes and the puppet plays can be viewed in response to the radically changing social and political environment.

  • El Cuerpo Del Gracioso: Comicidad Bufonesca Y Modos De Actuación En Los Muertos Vivos De Lope
    CRITICÓN, 60, 1994, pp. 49-60. El cuerpo del gracioso: comicidad bufonesca y modos de actuación en Los muertos vivos de Lope por Milagros TORRES (París - C.R.E.S.) ... Ce n'est rien d'autre que le désir du corps de l'acteur qui pousse à écrire pour le théâtre. (Valere Novarina)1 Empecemos a hablar del gracioso desde el escenario, desde ese ámbito perdido de la representación y tan presente, sin embargo, en nuestros textos teatrales del Siglo de Oro. La caracterización de los primeros graciosos lopescos no podría entenderse sin una consideración de la realidad física del teatro, del sustento primigenio de todo acto dramático, el hombre en escena, el actor. Él es el fundamento y el primer destinatario del texto, el que crea y recrea con el público el momento único de lo representado. Las dificultades con las que topamos al acercarnos al estudio de la actuación, es decir, del movimiento, de la voz, de los ademanes del actor a partir de un texto teatral de finales del siglo XVI como es Los muertos vivos, fechada entre 1599 y 16022, son conocidas por todos: acotaciones muy limitadas, escasez de textos teóricos sobre los que apoyar nuestra argumentación. Buena muestra del estado de la cuestión desde el punto de vista crítico es el volumen editado por José María Diez Borque Actor y Técnica de Representación del Teatro Clásico Español (1989)3. Con todo, existen rasgos constitutivos en esta comedia -en particular la caracterización física y modos de actuación de los personajes que encarnan la comicidad en los que la imagen y utilización del cuerpo cobra una importancia esencial- cuyo análisis podría iluminar algo más este terreno tan nebuloso del actuar, indispensable para comprender la naturaleza de la llamada «figura del donaire» en los titubeos de sus primeros momentos, así como la verdadera dimensión del acto escénico a finales del siglo XVI.

  • In Commedia Dell'arte Performa
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: MOVING FROM THE ARCHIVE: HISTORIOGRAPHY AND “AUTHENTICITY” IN COMMEDIA DELL’ARTE PERFORMANCE Matthew Ray Wilson, PhD, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Franklin J. Hildy, School of Theatre, Dance, and Performance Studies This dissertation examines the multiple definitions of “Commedia dell’Arte” in historiography and contemporary performance, analyzing potentials and problematics behind attempts to understand “historical” Commedia dell’Arte and to (re)construct contemporary Commedia using what Franklin J. Hildy calls an “applied theater history” approach. Employing archival historiography, literary analysis, art historical techniques, practical dramaturgy, Practice-as-Research, and qualitative research, I describe different realities of Commedia dell’Arte performance from history and contemporary practice, including ways in which “mistakes” or “appropriations” in the form have become included within its present identities. Chapter One describes the status of the field, problems, and approaches to identifying what Commedia dell’Arte “is” today based upon autoethnography and interview material from contemporary practitioners, whose competing approaches inform the ongoing conversation. Chapter Two traces the history of the form known as “Commedia dell’Arte” from its origins to contemporary pedagogy with special attention given to appropriations, evolutions, distortions, and efforts at reproduction. In Chapter Three, I narrow the focus to a specific case-study—a recent production of the classic scenario Il

Abstract This study examines the development of commercial theater in important urban locations of the Spanish Empire during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and compares them with their English counterparts. Based on manuscript and printed sources, it argues that the Spanish theaters developed into a well-entrenched and exportable system of public drama through their financial relationship to hospitals in those cities. Unlike in cities in the Anglo-Atlantic, this meant that theater was centrally integrated into the physical space of cities in Spain and its colonies. This relationship also gave Spanish public playhouses an upper hand when dealing with anti-theatrical moralizers. Additionally this study examines the impact that various groups had on the development of Renaissance theaters. Actors, playwrights, troupe directors, hospital administrators, actresses, and audience members, as well as imperial, local, and religious authorities, played a role in the creation of the most productive and most attended public drama of the early modern period. ii Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to Bailey. iii Acknowledgments Upon my arrival as a graduate student at the Ohio State University, I was lucky enough to work with John Brooke, whose energy, kindness, and brilliance never fail to astound.
