Pages : 308
Book Description
Excerpt from Masterpieces of Modern Spanish Drama: The Great Galeoto, the Duchess of San Quentin, Daniela The drama Of Spain, early and modern, has in English speaking countries been sadly neglected. It is a regrettable fact that one of the most gorgeous and passionate outbursts of national dramatic genius has received but scant attention from English readers. Cervantes' name is at least not un known to the great mass of readers in every language, but to the majority Of English and Americans, Lope de Vega, Tirso de Molina, and Calderon - to mention only the greatest of dozens of dramatists of the time - are a closed book. About fifteen Calderon plays are available in some form in English translation or adaptation, only two or three of 'lope and, to my knowledge, not one of Tirso. Of the eighteenth century lesser lights I should venture to say that there is in English no translation. The case is the same with the dramatists of the early nineteenth century, if we except one or two notable translations and studies, like that recently issued by the Hispanic Society (a translation of Un mmm drama). And yet this period saw a rebirth Of the national spirit in the drama unequalled in any other country save France.

Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
"The bringing of Spanish seventeenth-century verse plays to the contemporary English-speaking stage involves a number of fundamental questions. Are verse translations preferable to prose, and if so, what kind of verse? To what degree should translations aim to be 'faithful'? Which kinds of plays 'work', and which do not? Which values and customs of the past present no difficulties for contemporary audiences, and which need to be decoded in performance?Which kinds of staging are suitable, and which are not? To what degree, if any, should one aim for 'authenticity' in staging? In this volume, a group of translators, directors, and scholars explores these and related questions."--Jacket
