Archetypes and Intertextuality in the Italian Theatrical Version of Caperucita en Manhattan, by Carmen Martín Gaite
Abstract
In this article we propose to study the Italian theatrical version of Caperucita en Manhattan, by Carmen Martín Gaite, premiered in 1999 by the Teatro delle Marionette di Gianni e Cosetta Colla, in Milan. We will study the scenic text to see how traditional archetypes are subverted and the important role that intertextuality plays in this process, focusing on the structural and linguistic features that define the main characters of the novel to observe how they pass, and if they pass, to the theatrical version.
