Pulcinella
lo scugnizzo napoletano

Two important definitions Benedetto Croce
observed that Pulcinella does not design a
determined character, but a collection of
characters united only by a mask, by a half black
mask, by a white shirt, by a pointed hat. R. De
Simone observed that Pulcinella is the mask for
excellence of the popular parthenopean world, a
mask that refers first of all to deaths
expression. The white dress made up with bed
sheets a white shirt and a white pointed hat
have valence of death even the mask that covers
his face has the same valence. A black mask that
can be turned into the white skins color
obtained with flour or chock, that makes the mask
even more spectral.

The origin The parthenopean masks origin is
unsure like the names meaning. There is who says
that the name comes from Pulcinello, a small
chick, because of his nose others instead
identify him as Puccio d Aniello an impolite
man of the 600 coming from Acerra (near Naples).
He made fun of a company of actors, and then
united to them as a kind of clown. Pulcinellas
mask even has a French version in Polichinelle
a boaster with a double hounchback and an
appariscent dress. We even have an English
version in Punch who had a brutal and
malinconic humor. These versions of the mask have
common points, for example, confirming what De
Simone said, since from the 300 the mask
personalized for its characteristic shrill voice,
typical of the masks rappresenting the soul of
dead people.

Central moment for Pulcinella However there is
a fondamental period in the theatrical evolution
of this mask, it corresponds to the end of the
600 and the beginning of the 700, when the
theater in Naples shows the citys culture. It
develops a kind of show in dialectal language, a
very creative expression, and a new generation of
theater actors even new theaters are built the
famous San Carlo opens. During this period
Pulcinellas mask has a foundamental role in the
theaters. The
