This volume presents a selection of essays by established Italian
and international scholars in the field of Romantic drama. It is
divided into four main sections: 1) Dramatic Theory and Practice;
2) On the Romantic Stage: History, Arts, and Acting; 3) Interaction
of Genres: from Fiction to Drama; 4) The Romantics' Debate on
Theatre and Drama: a Selected Anthology. The crucial area of debate
these essays address is the way in which the problem of the
dramatic representation of the self becomes in Romantic drama the
very centre of reflection on the constitution of the modern
subject. Each essay explores one or more aspects of the formation
of modern subjectivity through dramatic representation of the self
and through critical enquiry into the modes of that representation.
The first and the fourth sections discuss the complex interaction
between the theoretical questions that animated the debate around
the Romantic theatre and the multifarious and often unruly
performance practices of the time. The other two sections deal with
the many and diverse ways in which Romantic drama engaged with and
incorporated other artistic genres such as painting, performing
arts, music, and the novel.
