Sentences with LAZZI (5)
Rome had its Nobles, Plebeians, and Slaves; Germany its Edhilingi, Frilingi, and Lazzi; England its Eaorls, Thanes, and Ceorls.
What was the nature of that perfection to which the Italian pantomime reached; and that prodigality of genius which excited such enthusiasm, not only among the populace, but the studious, and the noble, and the men of genius? The Italian Pantomime had two peculiar features; a species of buffoonery technically termed _Lazzi_, and one of a more extraordinary nature, the _extempore dialogue_ of its comedy.
These _Lazzi_ were certain pleasantries of gesticulation, quite national, yet so closely allied to our notions of buffoonery, that a northern critic would not readily detect the separating shade; yet Riccoboni asserts that they formed a critical, and not a trivial art.
While Scapin is talking, Harlequin performs his _Lazzi_--imagining he holds a hatful of cherries, he seems eating them, and gaily flinging the stones at Scapin; or with a rueful countenance he is trying to catch a fly, and with his hand, in comical despair, would chop off the wings before he swallows the chameleon game.
These, with similar _Lazzi_, harmonise with the remonstrance of Scapin, and re-animate it; and thus these "_Lazzi_, although they seem to interrupt the progress of the action, yet in cutting it they slide back into it, and connect or tie the whole." These _Lazzi_ are in great danger of degenerating into puerile mimicry or gross buffoonery, unless fancifully conceived and vividly gesticulated.
