Beyond Praxis: Leone de' Sommi's Apology of Theater and Judaism in His \Quattro dialoghi in materia di rappresentazioni sceniche\
2015
Overview
Leone de' Sommi's treatise Quattro dialoghi in materia di rappresentazioni sceniche (Mantova, 1565) is known mainly as the earliest methodical treatment of the art of theater direction. I aim to shed light on another aspect of this text, which resides under the surface despite its centrality to the author's project. I propose that De' Sommi's Dialoghi constitute an apology of both secular theater and Jewish culture, aimed at two distinct reading audiences: his Christian and Jewish readers.
