My name is Pulcinella and I am your travel companion on your trip through my hometown Naples. You are going to see me on many pages of Portanapoli and, hopefully, you won\u2019t catch me just when I wolf down spaghetti with my bare hands\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Pulcinella

Pulcinella (\u00a9 Francesca Buommino)<\/p><\/div>\n

Many Neapolitans say that I am a lovely, loud, and smart glutton. Others think I am the embodiment of the soul of the Neapolitan people\u2026! \ud83d\ude42 As you might have noticed already, I typically wear a black half mask with a long nose, a long white garment with a black leather belt, and harem pants. Oh, yes, – I always wear a high cap on my head, of course.<\/p>\n

My spirited language is that of the signs and gestures, with which you can have a silent conversation in Naples<\/a>. But because a Neapolitan rarely lacks the right words, my language is used more as a dramatic background of all conversations. My sign language with gestures<\/a> doesn\u2019t stop at the telephone receiver, though, even if the person at the other end of the line has no idea of my creative gestures.<\/p>\n

Since the 18th century, I have been the symbolic figure of the comedy in Neapolitan folk theatre, which has been made famous by Eduardo Del Filippo during the last decades. In the Commedia dell\u2019Arte I play the important role of the amicable buffoon. The actor, Tot\u00f2, who was loved by Neapolitans, was considered my modern personification in Italian movies.<\/p>\n

Now I have to go to Culinary Delights<\/a> as fast as I can, because a big Neapolitan\u00a0pizza is waiting for me.<\/p>\n

Have fun on Portanapoli!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
