italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear all,<div><br>
<div>I have a quick question regarding the presence of a mirror as a stage property in Italian drama of the Renaissance. I have been writing my research on mirrors in Jacobean city comedy and tragedy where mirror appears mostly as a symbol of vanity and a tool for self-embellishment, and I was wondering about the trope on the Italian stage. Could anyone recall encountering a mirror in any play of the period?</div>
</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you very much for your kind help and I look forward to the responses.</div><div><br></div><div>Jana Pridalova</div>
