Abstract

This works examines how the dramaturgical creative act varies according to the reality of the artist in exile, whether at home or abroad, in the context of Argentina's last dictatorship (1976-1983). Our corpus examines three playwrights in exile at the time in Spain (Bortnik, Gambaro and Raznovich) and the works of two artists who considered the topic of exile while remaining in Argentina (Gris de ausencia by Cossa and Lejana tierra prometida by Halac). In turn, this allows us to consider an ontological perspective of theatre and uphold the vitality of contact between Argentina, Spain and Italy during this time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Resumen En el contexto de la última dictadura argentina (1976-1983), el objetivo de nuestro artículo es analizar cómo el acto creador dramatúrgico varía según se impone en él la realidad del exilio o del insilio de los teatristas. A través de nuestro corpus, estudiamos a tres dramaturgas exiliadas en España (Bortnik, Gambaro y Raznovich) y las propuestas de dos artistas que permanecieron en Argentina y plasmaron el exilio en sus obras (Gris de ausencia de Cossa y Lejana tierra prometida de Halac). Esto permite, a su vez, reflexionar sobre el teatro en un sentido ontológico y corroborar la vitalidad de los contactos entre Argentina, España e Italia durante este tiempo.

Abstract

El esplendor adquirido por el teatro español durante la segunda mitad del siglo XIX está fuera de dudas. Tal fue la importancia y repercusiones de este teatro que muchos géneros fueron evolucionando y adaptándose. En este teatro cobraron especial relevancia las obras menores, cortas, de apenas un acto, que servían de enlace en las funciones entre obras mayores (dramas, comedias, zarzuelas u óperas). Obras que acabaron predominando en la mayoría de las funciones celebradas. Gracias a estas obras cortas se dieron a conocer muchos autores. En muchos casos fueron autores locales, conocidos en círculos reducidos de ciudades o provincias. En algunos casos alcanzaron un reconocimiento mayor. El rastreo documental en archivos y prensa de la época, así como la cesión de una copia impresa de la obra por familiares del autor, han permitido rescatar del olvido esta pieza que, a pesar de haber sido representada en Madrid, no figura en los catálogos existentes, como los editados por la Fundación Juan March, imprescindibles para adentrarse en la vida teatral del siglo XIX. Resaltar el valor de estas obras menores y su contribución al florecimiento y auge del teatro como foco de cultura y llamar la atención sobre autores teatrales desconocidos, ausentes de los catálogos oficiales y del reconocimiento de la crítica, centran este trabajo The splendor acquired by the Spanish theater during the second half of the 19th century is beyond doubt. Such was the importance and repercussions of this theater that many genres evolved and adapted. In this theater, the minor, short plays of just one act, which served as a link in the functions between major works (dramas, comedies, operettas or operas). Works that ended up prevailing in most of the performed functions. Thanks to these short works many authors became known. In many cases they were local authors, known in small circles of cities or provinces. In some cases they achieved greater recognition. The documentary tracking in archives and the press of the time, as well as the transfer of a printed copy of the work by relatives of the author, have made it possible to rescue from oblivion this piece that, despite having been represented in Madrid, does not appear in the catalogs existing ones, such as those published by the Juan March Foundation, essential for entering the theatrical life of the 19th century. Highlighting the value of these minor works and their contribution to the flourishing and rise of the theater as a focus of culture and drawing attention to unknown theatrical authors, absent from official catalogs and from critical recognition, focus this work.
