Excerpt from Contemporary Spanish Dramatists: Plays by Perez Galdos, Linares Rivas, Marquina, Zamacois, Dicenta and the Alvarez Quinteros The interest awakened in America during the past few years in the drama has led to the publication of many translations from the various European languages. Many excellent collections, as well as numerous individual plays, have appeared in English translation. The American public has been learning to read plays, an art hitherto neglected in this country, and the works of Hauptmann and Sudermann, Brieux and Rostand, Maeterlinck and D'Annunzio, and many of lesser note, have become well known even to those unfamiliar with the languages of the originals. One country alone has been practically ignored in the compilation of these collections from contemporary dramatists. With a few exceptions, the drama of Spain of today is unavailable to those who do not read Spanish. Of her recent dramatists only Echegaray has been translated to any extent, and he can scarcely be considered contemporary. No collection of modern Spanish plays exists. A volume, "Plays by Benavente," recently translated by Mr. J. G. Underhill, and a few isolated plays are all that have been published in book form. Several others have appeared in dramatic and literary magazines. Of the plays contained in this volume, only "Electra" has been previously translated. This is included here as probably the best and most typical of Galos' dramatic works. There are in print no translations of any of the works of Marquina, Linares Rivas, Dicenta or Zamacois. The peculiarly Spanish atmosphere of the theatrical productions of that country may have influenced translators to believe that they would not appeal to the American reader. It is this very atmosphere peculiar to the Peninsula that has inspired the present volume, with the hope of aiding in a better understanding of the life and spirit of Spain. The compiler's thanks are especially due to his colleague, Professor Mark Skidmore for his excellent translation of "Juan Jose," as well as for kind assistance with several of the other plays; also to Miss Helen S. Nicholson of the Tucson High School for many valuable suggestions and a careful revision of the manuscript.

"In this collection, nine specialists in Spanish American theatre examine social and aesthetic issues reflected in today's vital drama." "The essays in this volume reflect a pattern of interests rapidly becoming dominant among scholars. Several of them deal with questions of genre or focus on metatheatre and parody, theatrical techniques widespread in Latin America. The majority treat these topics in conjunction with their social context. Dominant themes include the question of whether there can be culture-specific genres, incorporating the extremely varied ethnic and cultural strands of the Spanish American social fabric, or the use (and reinterpretation) of tragic and comic structures and classical myths to express social marginality or demythologize received history. A number of essays focus on the problematic situation of women in Spanish American society and their struggle to achieve equality in a highly traditional culture. At the same time the authors examine the role of women in the theatre, both as protagonists and as creative artists, and their struggle to gain acceptance of nontraditional roles and lifestyles."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The book constitutes the first attempt to provide an overview of the reception of foreign drama in Spain during the Franco dictatorship. John London analyses performance, stage design, translation, censorship, and critical reviews in relation to the works of many authors, including Noel Coward, Arthur Miller, Eugene Ionesco, and Samuel Beckett. He compares the original reception of these dramatists with the treatment they were given in Spain. However, his study is also a reassessment of the Spanish drama of the period. Dr London argues that only by tracing the reception of non-Spanish drama can we understand the praise lavished on playwrights such as Antonio Buero Vallejo and Alfonso Sastre, alongside the simultaneous rejection of Spanish avant-garde styles. A concluding reinterpretation of the early plays of Fernando Arrabal indicates the richness of an alternative route largely ignored in histories of Spanish theatre.

At the start of the twenty-first century, performances of early modern Spanish drama experienced resurgent popularity--not only in Spain but also on stages across Europe, Latin America, and the United States. In the academy the comedia, which includes comic, tragicomic, and tragic works, is widely taught in a range of contexts to a variety of students, in Spanish and in translation. Given the steady increase of Spanish as the language of choice in foreign language departments, these courses will continue to flourish. This volume offers guidance to teachers in helping students engage with and understand these late-sixteenth- and early-seventeenth-century works. Part 1, "Materials," evaluates editions and anthologies in English and Spanish; identifies important critical works and historical studies; and surveys illustrated books, films, and Internet resources. In part 2, "Approaches," experienced teachers discuss the way the plays challenged the interests of the monarchial state; examine the obsession with honor shared by Spanish men and women alike; explain the key role costume played in providing both pleasure and meaning; and explore how late-twentieth-century films reflect elements of these early Spanish plays. Other approaches center on five women playwrights; delve into the complex theological and philosophical underpinnings of the plays; pair the plays with Shakespearean drama; show how Spanish plays influenced French dramatists; and trace the appeal of the Don Juan figure.
