Description

Excerpt from The Drama; Its History, Literature, and Influence on Civilization, Vol. 5: Italian Drama At the end of the eighteenth century came the great tragic poet Alfieri, who, after unlearn ing his native tongue, regained it to achieve its redemption. Late in beginning to write, he was marvellously industrious and published thirty tragedies, besides comedies, satires and a notable autobiography. His spirit is reflected in the revi val of tragic acting in our own day, as exemplified in Ristori and Salvini. Manzoni, whose fame rests on his novel, I Promessz' Sposz', composed two good tragedies, but without the fire and force of Alfieri. Nicolini achieved even greater success.
