Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the origins of Italian theater by tracing its evolution from sacred to secular forms. The author argues that the Sacra Rappresentazione, a religious drama popular in medieval Italy, profoundly influenced the development of secular theater.
