Alfieri and Goldoni: Their Lives and Adventures by Edward Copping is a biographical work that explores the lives and careers of two prominent Italian playwrights of the 18th century, Vittorio Alfieri and Carlo Goldoni. The book delves into their personal lives, including their upbringing, education, and relationships, as well as their professional achievements and contributions to Italian literature. Copping provides a detailed account of Alfieri's early years as a soldier and his subsequent career as a playwright, including his political activism and his influence on Italian theater. He also examines Goldoni's upbringing in a theatrical family and his prolific output as a writer, including his famous comedies. The book also explores the cultural and historical context of Italy during the 18th century, including the Enlightenment, the rise of the middle class, and the changing attitudes towards theater and literature. Through extensive research and analysis, Copping provides a fascinating portrait of two of Italy's most important literary figures, shedding light on their personal lives, their artistic achievements, and their enduring legacies. Alfieri and Goldoni: Their Lives and Adventures is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Italian literature, theater, or cultural history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
