Golden Age Comedia : Text, Theory and Performance, Paperback / softback Book

Golden Age Comedia : Text, Theory and Performance Paperback / softback

Edited by Charles; Mancing Ganelin

Part of the Purdue Studies in Romance Literatures series

Paperback / softback

Description

Drawing on the groundbreaking Spanish scholarship and editions of earlier generations and relying on research conducted in Spanish archives, this pioneering group of English-speaking scholars offers a new treatment of familiar material.

The editors yoke together widely varying critical practices, including incisive New Critical readings and far-reaching explorations that draw on the most current European critical thought.

In addition to these more strictly literary studies, there are interdisciplinary essays focusing on seventeenth- and twentieth-century reception and the social makeup of the comedia audience.

The whole thus presents a balanced picture of the many ways in which the comedia can be viewed, and the contributors complement each other's work in often surprising ways, illuminating the same corpus from a number of perspectives.
