Luigi Pirandello's drama, at its heart, deals with the problems of being and becoming, identity, and creativity. His works are centered upon the nature of personal experience and the ways in which we perceive and interact with the world and its inhabitants. But often overlooked is the role that time plays in those dramas' already complicated and divisive subject matter. While concepts and themes related to time-e.g., memory and narrative-are often at the core of Pirandello's drama, a cohesive approach to the topic of time and temporality in his work is lacking. This thesis, using three of Pirandello's majors plays as case studies, will offer an analysis of the playwright's dramaturgical management of time as a textual theme, as the basis of dramatic narrative, and-in the guise of memory and anticipation-as the ontological foundation of the concept of dramatic character. These plays, written in the midst of the general discourse on time and temporality at work in the early part of the 20th-century, lend themselves to be read in dialogue with 1) the philosophical exploration of the concept of time, memory, and duration developed by Bergson, 2) the phenomenology of internal time consciousness advanced by Husserl, 3) Heidegger's idea of temporality as the underlying structure of both being and meaning, and 4) Einstein's consideration of the relativity of mankind's perception of events in the space-time continuum. In this thesis, I will demonstrate that Pirandello was working at the intersection of trends deriving from each of these philosophical premises, creating a theory of dramatic form that is structured by the very concept it illustrates thematically, namely the relativity of time in man's experience of the world and the notion of temporality as the foundation of all consciousness.

This is an absurdist drama that revolves around six characters who interrupt a play rehearsal to request that the Producer wrap up their story, claiming that their author never finished the play for which they were created. While the Producer and actors are initially skeptical, they are captivated by the characters' predicament and pulled into their crisis. As the characters and the stage company struggle to resolve the ambiguity that plagues not only their existence but also their identity, conflict arises between reality and appearance.

"No apology is necessary for offering to American readers a play which critics, with singular unanimity, have called one of the most original productions seen on the modern stage. In less than a year's time, "Six Characters in Search of an Author" has won a distinguished place in the dramatic literature of the Western world, attracting audiences and engaging intellects far removed from the particular influences which made of it a season's sensation in Italy." -Preface

Luigi Pirandello is best known for his ability to create farcical tragedies that pit reality against appearance in such a way that objective truth is never revealed. Time magazine called Pirandello's work a fascinating precursor of the entire theater of the absurd -- the anguish over existence in Sartre and Camus, the guerilla warfare against ossified language and the mass mind in Ionesco, the bleak, alienated vision of Beckett, the sense of man eternally acting a role in Genet, and the use of the stage as a self-contained universe in Pinter. In new translations by acclaimed playwright and translator Eric Bentley, these versions of four of Pirandello's most celebrated plays -- Six Characters in Search of an Author, Emperor Henry, The Man with the Flower in His Mouth, and Right You Are -- are considered to be the standards for American productions. They capture the playwright's unique voice with remarkable precision, while at the same time attending to the rigors of the American stage.

This fourth volume Luigi Pirandello’s collected plays contains four works written between 1916 and 1930 and covers the most productive years of Pirandello's life. It is difficult to overestimate the importance of Pirandello to 20th century theatre. Like Ibsen and Chekhov he held a mirror to life that tilted to bring out the tragedies, absurdities, and banalities that are present in the human condition. Like those who followed him—Beckett, Brecht and Ionesco in particular—Pirandello uses the stage in radical ways, mingling waking reality with dreams and allowing the appearance of truth. Pirandello is one of the most seminal figures of modern theatre, but his influence can be seen in the expressionist, surrealist, and other art movements of 20th century art.

A volume of plays from the founding architect of twentieth-century drama, including his most popular and controversial work A Penguin Classic Pirandello is brilliantly innovatory in his forms and themes, and in the combined energy, imagination and visual colours of his theatre. This volume of plays, translated from the Italian by Mark Musa, opens with Six Characters in Search of an Author, in which six characters invade the stage and demand to be included in the play. The tragedy Henry IV dramatizes the lucid madness of a man who may be King. In So It Is (If You Think So), the townspeople exercise a morbid curiosity attempting to discover “the truth” about the Ponza family. Each of these plays can lay claim to being Pirandello’s masterpiece, and in exploring the nature of human personality, each one stretches the resources of drama to their limits. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,800 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Suicide, the act of killing oneself voluntarily and intentionally, is clearly one of the most important themes developed by Pirandello during his long literary career. Although he never focused on self-destruction as an end in itself, he made ample use of it to dramatise his tragic view of the human condition. Indeed, this theme recurs with astonishing frequency in his short stories, play and novels. It even appears sporadically in his poetry.
