Pirandello vs d’Annunzio
abstract
This essay analyses the critical hatred shown by Pirandello against d’Annunzio. And especially in the private letters sent to his beloved actress, the hostility maintains all his aversion, although in public the relationship has been transformed into collaboration, during the staging of the Figlia di Iorio in 1934. And yet, the Pirandellian work reveals withdrawals from the d’Annunzian one.
