Forma Atlante e storiografia teatrale : una questione di metodo

In this contribution, Daniela Sacco offers a reflection on the possibility of considering the ‘atlas form’, deduced from the thought of Aby Warburg, as a model for investigating the methodology of twentieth-century theatrical historiography, and in particular in the pioneering studies opened by Ludovico Zorzi and Fabrizio Cruciani. Two authors who stand in continuity and significantly share with Warburg an interest in the study of Renaissance culture.
