Paduan playwright Angelo Beolco, alias Ruzante, wrote against a vibrant tradition of dialect parody lyric and popular verse theater in the Veneto region. Yet in a pair of darkly comic one-act plays, the Due dialoghi in lingua rustica , Beolco pushes beyond his comic roots to reach new depths of tragic seriousness. Though in prose, the Dialoghi should be read as responding to the corpus of dialect poetry; when the humorous tension between the peasant speaker and his high poetic form is confronted with social and economic reality, tragedy is born.
