A MARTA ABBA PER NON MORIRE | 2022 | PIETRO FRASSICA

This work by Pietro Frassica presents a reflective and interpretive examination of the relationship between Marta Abba and Luigi Pirandello, focusing on the theme of survival through art and memory. Through archival material, correspondence and biographical study, the book investigates how Abba’s collaboration and personal bond with Pirandello served as a form of existential and creative resistance, hence the metaphorical subtitle “per non morire”. It situates the narrative at the intersection of theatre studies, literary history and actor‑author dynamics, offering insight into early‑20th‑century Italian theatre.
