- Summary:
- "La Locandiera" è una delle più felici ed equilibrate commedie di Goldoni, mirabile per la giustezza del ritmo, la precisione e l'acutezza con cui sono ritratti l'ambiente e i personaggi. L'intera commedia è centrata sul personaggio di Mirandolina, un'affascinante incarnazione dell'eterno femminino, della civetteria, della malizia e della furbizia delle donne.
