Abstract: In Quaderni di Serafino Gubbio operatore, the Italian writer Luigi Pirandello performs a scathing critique of the cinema and the false image that modern machinery started to capture, freezing in time, modifying and reproducing. The prospective look exploited in the novel shows the impossibility for representing the reality through an image which is frozen in time and space. The central idea expressed in the notebooks of Serafino Gubbio is: there is always something else beyond the image. Our objective in this study is to verify in the narrative plot, how Pirandello disclose his own mistrust on what is seen, whether on a photography, a movie screen or in a literary description.Downloads
