Summary/Abstract: Giovanni Testori was one of the most important protagonists of the Italian stage in the second half of the twentieth century. An inconvenient author, isolated from the so-called literary society, he was deeply interested in the allegorical culture of Gaudenzio Ferrari la Tanzio da Varallo. Giovanni Testori was captivated by the reflection of themes such as lucidity and madness, piety and revolt, using an imaginative and experimental language. The interest of Giuseppe Griffi oscillates between theater and cinema. He finds in chronic themes to transpose unto the stage, turning them into explosive parables. The Neapolitan author and stage director uses in his works a tough language, being always much more interested in chronic and less in history. The reminiscences from Edwardian Theater can be recognized in his dramas, designed with the "ruzzante-parents" naturalness. They highlight the conflicting feelings, and the city of Naples is chosen as the symbol of evil in a modern society.
