| description |
Moving from the analysis of Eleonora Duse’s acting technique and its
reception during her life, the three feminine leading characters of two
plays (Sogno di un mattino di primavera and La città morta) and a novel (Il Fuoco)
by Gabriele d’Annunzio are closely investigated in relation with the
symbolic conception of the space displayed in those works. La Demente,
blind Anna and Foscarina are all inspired by Duse’s stage skills. Not
only can they interweave a visionary and passionate relationship with
the nature that surrounds them – a gorgeous garden in Tuscany, the arid
ruins near Mycenae and the famous maze in Villa Pisani near Strà – but
also their bodies can detect and translate the archetypes of universe.
Our aim is to show how deeply their intimate conception is in debt with
the idea of an unconscious sensor of cosmic forces, of a multi-souls
actress like Eleonora Duse.
