Description:

College: COLLEGE OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCE Department: SPANISH & ITALIAN Credits: 3.00 The Drama of the Golden Age. Prerequisites: SPAN 361. An overall approximation to early modern Spanish theater, this course focuses on text analysis and performance as two fundamental elements in the understanding and appreciation of Spanish comedias. It allows students to access the plays from different angles: 1) as texts that need to be studied analytically; 2) as cultural and historical exponents of a specific period; 3) as objects of literary and theatrical research; 4) as would-be productions waiting to be staged. After an introductory account on early modern Spanish theater and comedia performance then and now, classes are organized around three phases resembling those of theater production: text analysism, pre-production workshop, and staging. 3 hours lecture.
