Frammenti di tempo e spazio in alcuni personaggi di Luigi Pirandello

In twentieth century Italian literature, the conception of time goes towards subjectivity and gradually goes away from the chronological order of the events. Luigi Pirandello's work illustrates the fragmenting of time and the upsetting of the conception of space. Through the characters, it is clear how it is impossible to decompose time without alteration and a breaking up of the spaces in which the events are taking place. Pirandello shows clearly not only a destabilization of space and time, but also the incapability and the inadequacy to analyse and schematize the passing of the time. The characters have their own sense of time and space. Also the same characters are trying to create their own time and space. Through symbolisms one can understand space and time. They are signs of the characters' and author's subjectivity. The human being limitation is his location and alienation within time and space. To understand it in Pirandello's work we need to follow the symbolism of the characters. We need to speak with them trying to create the same atmosphere of Pirandello's theatre.
