Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Goldoni and the Venice of His Time" is a biography of Italian playwright Carlo Goldoni, who lived from 1707 until 1793. Joseph Spencer Kennard's work is a detailed examination of Goldoni's life and work. Carlo Goldoni is the author of many classic Italian plays, some of which remain popular to this day; the play "Servant of Two Master" is perhaps his best known work. Author Joseph Kennard opens his biography of Goldoni with a chronological summary of the writer's life. From there, the book launches into a detailed discussion of all aspects of Carlos Goldoni's life, which has been broken down into chapters representing distinct time periods. Goldoni's childhood is detailed, as are his most prolific years as a playwright, with the concluding chapter ultimately dealing with Goldoni's death. Goldoni's biography is only one part of Kennard's book, and is in fact devoted less space than the author's examination of the works of the great playwright. Kennard provides a detailed breakdown, including plot summaries, details of the writing process, notes on critical reception, and behind the scenes gossip, of many of Goldoni's greatest works. For true fans of Carlo Goldoni, it is this section of the book that will be most appealing. As a detailed biography and a throughout examination of a man's work, Kennard's book "Goldoni and the Venice of His Time" is a great success. Anybody interested in the work of Carlo Goldoni, or a history of Italian theatre, will find this to be a fascinating read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Goldoni on Playwriting Among the writers of whom Italy is justly proud, Carlo Goldoni, the Venetian dramatist, holds a commanding place. Tho not a world genius such as Dante, Petrarch or Boccaccio, he is nevertheless the foremost playwright of his native land. Furthermore, he is the pioneer poet of a people, no previous dramatist having painted the life of the common people in colors so truthful as his. Being simply a naturalist, he had no avowed purpose, such as Moliere's, to correct the vices of his time; his ambition being merely "not to spoil nature." Yet he spoiled it whenever he transplanted some exotic story to the soil of his native Italy; since only when he painted the life of Venice, was he Gran Goldoni, the tribune of her people. His work fairly covers the entire range of the drama, - tragedy, tragi-comedy, comedy, farce, extravaganza, opera and opera-bouffe; yet he is eminent only in comedy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Goldoni's Comedies Moliere's keenness of observation, is devoid of his bitter satire. Both have the same movement and life, the same intuitive perception of what will please the public, the same sense of dramatic proportion. Goldoni was, however, less happy than Moliere as regards the times in which his lines were cast. The French dramatist, like Shakespeare, was born at an age in which his fatherland was traversing a glorious epoch of national story. The Italian lived instead in the darkest period of that political degradation which was the lot of the fairest of European countries, until quite recently, when she emancipated herself, threw ofl' the chains of foreign bondage, and proclaimed herself mistress of her own lands and fortunes. And manners and customs were no less in decadence in private as well as in public, - a sad epoch, truly, though to outsiders it looked light-hearted and merry enough. Goldoni's lot was cast in the final decades of the decrepitude of Venice, the last of the Italian proud Republics, which survived only to the end of the eighteenth century, indeed dissolved just four years after her great dramatist's demise. His long life comprised almost the whole of that century, from the wars of the Spanish Succession, which open the history of that era, to the Peace of aix-la-chapelle and the French Revolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Goldoni: A Biography To the Italians we must turn, however, when seek ing accurate information about Papa Goldoni, as they affectionately style him. While it is impossi ble to detail here the vast mass of admirable literature concerning him that has been published in Italy, notably in 1907, when the second centenary of his birth was celebrated throughout the Peninsula, atten tion should be called to the definitive edition of his works now being issued by the Municipality of Venice under the editorship of MM.
