Luigi Pirandello, a playwright of immense profundity and creativity, won the Nobel Prize for his work in theater. A brief history of his personal and educational development is presented here, followed by an excellent translation by Gigi Gatti and Terry Doyle of one of his plays, The Man with the Flower in His Mouth, written in 1926. It is a play that is little known in the United States, but which conveys his style and many of his views in a succinct manner. This is followed by an interpretation of some of the symbols, the psychodynamics, and the ego states of the characters that Pirandello described before those ego states were described in psychoanalytic literature.
路易吉·皮兰德娄是一位极具深度和创造力的剧作家，因其在戏剧领域的作品而荣获诺贝尔奖。在此呈现他个人及教育发展的简要历程，随后是吉吉·加蒂和特里·多伊尔对他于1926年创作的一部戏剧《口含鲜花的男人》的精彩翻译。这部戏剧在美国鲜为人知，但它以简洁的方式展现了他的风格和诸多观点。接下来是对皮兰德娄所描绘的一些象征、人物的心理动力学以及自我状态的解读，而这些自我状态在精神分析文献中才得以描述。
