Between History and Fiction: Europaeische Hochschulschriften / European University Studie, cartea 87


en Limba Engleză Paperback
This study explores a number of early modern "comedias" that deal with historical siege or military episodes in the history of the Iberian peoples. Cervantes's "La Numancia, " Lope de Vega's "El asalto de Mastrique" and his lesser known "La nueva victoria de don Gonzalo de Cordoba, " Calderon de la Barca's "El sitio de Breda, " and Velez de Guevara's "El Hercules de Ocana" are key texts examined here. Taking the distinction between history and fiction in Neo-Aristotelian literary theory as a point of departure, this book considers the intellectual and historical conditions that affect the ways in which early modern dramatists interpret historical events according to their own literary and ideological purposes. The interplay of history and fiction demonstrates uses and discontents of legitimizing fiction in the early modern period. Parallel themes of epic and siege intermingled with romance and carnivalesque humour, provide alternative perspectives to early modern representations of empire and war on the Spanish stage."
