Abstract

Donizetti's La Fille du régiment in its two Italian translations is studied. Calisto Bassi was the first translator who tried to adapt the text with many modifications in order to transfer the French genre opera comique to the Italian genre opera comica. The second translation is closer to the French text. The author analyses the issues present when translating from one genre to another.
