Resumen
The Curves of Don Giovanni. The Goldoni Case · Don Juan is a rare example of a series of theatrical performances that evoke an apparently cohesive production chain in terms of both subject and text and the use of various theatrical expedients. However, although such presumed organicity certainly serves to contextualize the diachronic intertextual dimension of such an iconic plot, it is also a fact that it may divert the audience’s attention from the process through which each of these plays implements the Don Juan myth. Each new performance of Don Juan expresses a multiple relationship which mirrors different artistic, cultural and political contexts. Every new staging of Don Juan is the result of a montage that goes way beyond the original script. This essay focuses on Carlo Goldoni’s Don Giovanni Tenorio, which the artist conceived at the beginning of an intense experimentation phase. It represents a bold attempt at systematizing the 17th Century representative plot, marked by autobiographical elements and linked to the Italian pastoral tradition.
