Bei der Figur des Pulcinella handelt es sich um eine der beliebtesten Figuren der Commedia dell'Arte.
Auch Johann Wolfgang von Goethe amüsierte sich über diesen Bühnencharakter:
"Goethe sprach sodann über den neapolitanischen Pulcinell. »Ein Hauptspaß dieser niedrig-komischen Personnage«, sagte er, »bestand darin, daß er zuweilen auf der Bühne seine Rolle als Schauspieler auf einmal ganz zu vergessen schien. [...]
Der Pulcinell ist in der Regel eine Art lebendiger Zeitung. Alles, was den Tag über sich in Neapel Auffallendes zugetragen hat, kann man abends von ihm hören. Diese Lokalinteressen, verbunden mit dem niedern Volksdialekt, machen es jedoch dem Fremden fast unmöglich, ihn zu verstehen «." (Eckermann, Gespräche mit Goethe, Sonntag, den 14. Februar 1830)
