Title

Sacrificio: Dramma in Tre Atti. [Facsimile.] New York: [n.p.], 1919.

Description

About Abbamonte, we know that he wrote plays and short stories, and he wrote often for the Siscas' La Follia (around 1940).

In his Attori e filodrammatici della vecchia Colonia Italiana di New York, published in La Follia of March 13, 1940, he discussed Armando Cennerazzo, featured in the Collection, the actor and author of theater, poetry, songs and Neapolitan caricatures, who collaborated with Francesco Ricciardi, performing duets and Neapolitan songs.

This play of Abbamonte's is about a young man who sacrifices himself for the honor of his sister. The play itself is preceded by an introduction or preface of L. Del Secolo that notes Abbamonte's fascination with D'Annunzio, Carducci and other greats of Italian literature but tells us little about him.

Durante states that this work was printed by the Bagnasco Press but there is no evidence in the facsimile in the Collection of that printer.
