Lope nel primo Settecento: Echi ‘aurei’ nella produzione drammatica di Placido Adriani
Abstract
Among the manuscripts of the San Pietro Library in Perugia is La Cleomira, an unpublished comedy “trasportata dallo spagnuolo” by the Benedictine monk Placido Adriani (1690–1766), best known for his Selva di concetti comici. This study explores the possible sources of the play, placing it within the broader context of Italian rewritings of Spanish Golden Age theatre, and draws particular attention to its parallels with Lope de Vega’s La Carbonera, with which it shares numerous structural, thematic, and narrative elements.
