Ugo Gregoretti, autore e regista. Televisione, cinema, opera lirica e teatro

The doctoral thesis represents an indepth and comprehensive investigation into Ugo Gregoretti's extensive and diverse career in the fields of television, film, opera, and theater. Through a biographical approach and extensive use of sources from the Ugo Gregoretti Study Center in Pontelandolfo, this research sheds light on the life and works of an eclectic artist whose significance has been largely overlooked. The findings of the analysis reveal an artistically multifaceted profile, characterized by a deep sensitivity to irony and a marked inclination to express his artistic vision through a variety of media. Gregoretti emerges as an author with extraordinary versatility, capable of spanning different genres and modes of expression while maintaining consistent originality in each of his works. A fundamental aspect of the research is the absence of in-depth studies dedicated to Gregoretti, despite his significant impact on the Italian artistic and cultural landscape. This thesis fills this gap, providing a comprehensive analysis of his career and his contribution to the development of art and entertainment in Italy. In this way, the research not only unveils a neglected figure but also sheds new light on the cultural and artistic dynamics of the country, enriching the overall understanding of its evolution.
