Carlo Goldoni (1707 - 1793) was one of the most prolific and
versatile playwrights of his century, even though most of his vast
output deals with life confined to a few square miles of Northern
Italy. This new edition contains two comedies about women surviving
precariously in a man's world, but each taking a distinctly
different approach to her problems. Mirandolina believes open
dealing is essential; Valentina wants to have her cake and eat it,
and uses intrigue to further her interests. Both are eager to win
some kind of equality in a world in which they have no equality,
only certain advantages, and almost come to grief. But these are
worldly comedies and Goldoni does not deny us the satisfaction of
seeing the women triumph.
