Pirandello's thesis in Romance linguistics (discussed in Bonn in 1891) is presented here in a new translation that highlights its scientific method, supported by the author's native expertise.
In the second section of the volume, Arte e scienza e L’umorismo, in the princeps of 1908, are brought into dialogue for the first time, as two sides of a single reflection on aesthetics and poetics.
