Autorenporträt
Luigi Pirandello was an influential Italian dramatist, novelist, poet, and short story writer, best known for his pioneering work in the theater. Born on June 28, 1867, in Agrigento, Italy, Pirandello's writing was deeply influential in the realm of modern drama. His works often explored complex themes such as the nature of identity, the relationship between reality and illusion, and the blurred boundaries between art and life. Pirandello's distinctive approach to theater and narrative earned him the 1934 Nobel Prize in Literature, awarded "for his bold and ingenious revival of dramatic and scenic art." He was married to Antonietta Portulano, with whom he had three children: Stefano, Fausto, and Lietta. Pirandello's legacy extends beyond literature, with his works inspiring numerous film adaptations, including Kaos and The Former Mattia Pascal. He passed away on December 10, 1936, in Rome, at the age of 69. Pirandello's profound influence on theater continues to resonate today, with his exploration of existential questions and theatrical experimentation leaving a lasting mark on the field.
