Abstract | As we have seen, modern theatre progressively leaves the space of the court and the academy to graft once again into the urban fabric, going from representing an elite to representing larger communities. The two models coexist for a long time, until the complete codification of the Italian theatre. The latter concretizes the popular theatre in the square, revives the theatre from basic buildings. It can be said that the architectural model of the hall with overlapping loggias has essentially never been abandoned, while the planimetric conformation has been and is the subject of continuous transformations. Therefore, some examples that have made it successful throughout Europe are analyzed below. It will also be seen how the spread of the Italian theatre type is inextricably linked to that of melodrama, a real independent cultural field that is new to the previous classical and medieval traditions. It is significant, then, that a return to the city similar to that described, if not more radical, has also occurred at present in the national scene; the model of the space for the constructed, codified, standardized spectacle is rejected and new or rediscovered places are used, bounded and adapted to the function. It will therefore deal with the concept of specialization of the contemporary building organism starting from the adaptation of the pre-existing structures, using case studies such as the very well-known Palazzina Liberty. In this process, we can therefore read cyclical back and forth, with a strong generator value. © 2022, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. |
