Product Description:
This work, drawn from a symposium held at the University of Texas, El Paso, in March, 1992, brings together scholars from all over North America, as well as other parts of the world, to study diverse aspects of the 'comedia' from an intellectual, academic perspective. Seven different aspects of the 'comedia' are examined in detail: Spain and the New World; Staging the 'Comedia': Then and Now; Feminist and Gender Studies; Critical Approaches: From Philosophy to Psychology; Themes, Myths and Archetypes; The 'Comedia' in History; The Text; and Authenticating and Editing. The variety and depth of these attests to the dynamic state of 'comedia' studies at the end of the twentieth century, and shows that Golden Age theatre still delights us aesthetically and stimulates us intellectually.
