Carlo, Count Gozzi - LoveToKnow 1911 |
 | | CARLO GOZZI, Count (1722-1806), Italian dramatist, was descended from an old Venetian family, and was born at Venice in March 1722. |
 | | In his later years Gozzi set himself to the production of tragedies in which the comic element was largely introduced; but as this innovation proved unacceptable to the critics he had recourse to the Spanish drama, from which he obtained models for various pieces, which, however, met with only equivocal success. |
 | | Gozzi (1821); "Charles Gozzi," by Paul de Musset, in the Revue des deux mondes for 15th November 1844; Magrini, Carlo Gozzi e la fiabe: saggi storici, biografici, e critici (Cremona, 1876), and the same author's book on Gozzi's life and times (Benevento, 1883). |
