Dr. Pacchioni’s book The Image of the Puppet in Italian Theater, Literature, and Film<\/em><\/a> (London: Palgrave Macmillan, 2022) has received the Nancy Staub Award for Excellence in Publications on the Art of Puppetry from the Union Internationale de la Marionnette (UNIMA), USA.<\/p>\n

The award is meant to honor books, articles, or dissertations that are exemplary contributions that forward the field of puppetry by documenting important histories, contributing importantly to theory or practice, and sharing prime research. The award committee found Dr. Pacchioni’s work a significant addition to the literature on puppetry and performing objects. Comments from the reviewers include:<\/p>\n

“This book makes a strong argument for the metaphorical power of the puppet when it appears in different media.”<\/p>\n

“This is a terrific read that should appeal both to academics and anyone with a serious interest in puppetry or culture in general.”<\/p>\n

“Pacchioni develops complex and diverse themes in each chapter that allow readers to learn about the complexity of Italian culture through the appearance of and reference to puppetry. He includes futurism and early modernism, the postwar work, and traditional folklore manifestations.”<\/p>\n
