The course aims to investigate the connections between dramaturgy, stage design and performance organization in the nineteenth-century context from a cross-cultural perspective. Aspects of lighting design peculiar to the stage culture of the period will be the focus of the course. The course will examine, first, the reflections on the artistic use of light in the theater between the 1770s and the beginning of the nineteenth century; secondly, it will turn to the new conceptions about the stage building, the practices for creating the effects of atmosphere and landscape with moving light, and the connections between painting, scene and landscape of the Romantic conception; and finally, it will bring attention to optical devices (panoramas, dioramas, shadow theaters ...), as a prelude to some turn-of-the-century innovative performances, such as Loïe Fuller's choreographies.
