Specialist Notes
Copy by Pietro Guadagnini, who signs the transcription on the first page in the year 1774, specifying how it was represented at home. The manuscript presents some cartouches with revisions and corrections, as well as countless additions by another hand in lighter ink with precise instructions for the actors. For example: with admiration, with jovial laugh, with fear, with shamefaced look, etc. Esteemed Sienese playwright (1675-1767), worked in Rome, Siena and Florence. Seen as a Goldonian precursor, he failed in the attempt to reform Italian theater in a modern way: "a dramaturgical production that is still fully enjoyable and varied – often full of interesting meta-theatrical cues – always dignified and with not rare examples of notable quality and depth." (Treccani, on line).
