Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exploration of rural 17th-century Northern Italian village life through the lens of an uproarious, dance-filled play. At its heart, the play tells the story of a young couple, Berna and Salvadore, whose love faces obstacles from nearly every direction. Their rich families, a cast of colorful townspeople, and even the devil himself stand in the way of their happiness. The author weaves a rich tapestry of humor, music, and commentary on the human condition into this lively narrative. The book offers a glimpse into the world of Northern Italian theater in the 17th century and is likely to entertain and inform readers interested in the performing arts, rural life, and the history of Italy.
