Pulcinellopedia Piccola (1984) is a book by Luigi Serafini and P. Cetrulo (actually a pseudonym of Serafini), published by Longanesi of Milan.
They are a suite of pencil drawings about the Neapolitan masque of Pulcinella. Very hard to find, it has been as of 2008 out of print for some time.
One of the several puzzling aspects of this book is its peculiar epigraph, which runs thus:
- uuèn gud is gud
- cchiùu blekk’e middenàit kennóttubbì
This appears to be English rendered in Italian orthography
A translation could be "When good is good/blacker than midnight it cannot be".
