Society for Pirandello Studies

The Society for Pirandello Studies (UK Registered Charity 288206) was funded in 1980 to promote the knowledge of the life and work of Luigi Pirandello in the UK and Ireland. This original focus now extends to promoting academic and artistic research in the wider field of modern and contemporary Italian drama. Our annual activities have historically included a conference or seminar, a journal, and an essay competition for undergraduate and postgraduate students.
