Description

Carlo Goldoni's plays offer a unique glimpse into 18th-century European theatre. This collection focuses on his more serious works, including Don Juan, Friends and Lovers, and The Battlefield. Written in verse, the English-language edition of Don Juan presents a worldly vision of the legend. The plays included in this volume showcase Goldoni's mastery of naturalistic drama. Friends and Lovers and The Battlefield were first performed at the Citizens Theatre in Glasgow, and their translations bring new insights into Goldoni's work. This collection provides a valuable introduction to Goldoni's lesser-known plays, alongside his most famous works.
