Pulcinella's Brood: Popular Culture in the Enlightenment - Toronto Italian Studies
Karen T. Raizen
Pulcinella, a Neapolitan clown born of the commedia dell’arte tradition, went viral in Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries. The book explores how Pulcinella was inserted into discourses about social order, aesthetics, and politics – how he became a revolutionary, a critic of the Catholic Church, and a champion of education.
