Examination of staging techniques in Lope de Vega's comedies. This
volume examines the staging techniques used by Lope de Vega in his
comedies, especially those dealing with national historic/legendary
materials, and with the Spanish-American landscape. Taking as a
premise the difference between `telling' and `representing',
Professor Kirschner bases her study on the performance aspects of
the text, giving equal value to `extra-verbal' and `verbal' signs,
such as those which describe the scenery and character's physique;
other visual (decor, wardrobe, movement, gesture, lighting) and
acoustic (music, voices, songs) elements are also analysed. The
first part of the book deals with specific dramatic strategies used
by Lope in his representationof dreams, sexuality, and the
collective character; the author then moves on to consider the
implications of staging within the structure of the plays. The
final section is centred on Lope's dramaturgy of the New World,
specifically the discourse in favour of the Conquest, and its
opposite, the discourse in favour of the `Indian'. TERESA J.
KIRSCHNER teaches in the Department of Spanish Studies at Simon
Fraser University.
