Tom Stoppard e il professional fool tra canone e avanguardia.

Abstract

This paper explores Tom Stoppard's distinctive use of intertextuality, examining how he bridges canonical literature with avant-garde elements to create complex, multi-layered theatrical experiences. By analyzing key works such as *Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead*, the study aims to illustrate how Stoppard's intertextual approach not only redefines the boundaries of traditional narratives but also challenges audiences to engage with literature and philosophy in innovative ways.
