The student must be able to express himself correctly both orally and in writing. For this reason, any spelling and expression errors that you may commit will lead to a decrease in the score in the final grade.
The activities, practices and works presented in the course must be original and, under any circumstances, total or partial plagiarism of external materials published in any medium will not be admitted. The eventual presentation of non-original material without properly indicating its origin will automatically result in a failure rating (0).
Likewise, it is considered that the student knows the general norms of presentation of an academic work. However, you can apply the specific rules that the teacher of the subject may indicate, if you deem it necessary.
For the first block, a basic knowledge of the history of the Golden Age theater and the reading of at least some representative texts of the same is considered essential, such as a work by Lope de Vega, Tirso de Molina or Calderón (Fuenteovejuna, El caballero de Olmedo, Don Gil de las calzas verdes or La vida es sueño, for example). Students who do not have this base are encouraged to read Ignacio Arellano's book and at least one of the works just mentioned in one of the editions recommended in the bibliography.
For the second block, it is essential to read at least Cervantes' Novelas ejemplares as well as selected fragments of other works by the author. Likewise, students must have basic knowledge of the historical and literary context of Spain in the Golden Age and the methodology of text commentary (to complete their knowledge and skills, students can consult the works referenced in the bibliography).
In order to show the student two different processes of literary transmission, the module offers two blocks that will address texts of the same genre, dramatic literature, but in two different periods.
In the first case, the one dedicated to the theater of the Spanish Golden Age, the genre will be analyzed as a historical and documentary asset with a temporal continuity that reaches our days. In the second case, the study of contemporary Spanish and Latin American dramaturgy and the staging of dramatic texts, aims to bring the student closer to the performative dimension of the theatrical text and the translation of the word to the scene, paying special attention to the literary tradition and contemporary rewritings of the classics of the Golden Age.
In the case of block I, the course is conceived as a presentation of the Teatro del Siglo de Oro as a historical and documentary heritage asset, both immaterial (in aesthetic terms and of an unrepeatable reality that has already passed, since the essence of the theater is its representation) and material (to the extent that we know this historical reality through a series of documents that are precisely those that allow us to reconstruct it). Stricto sensu the theater of the Golden Age as a reality lived in the time in which it was created and performed, it left never to return. But the documentary wealth, from the handwritten or printed texts of the plays, to the legal and censorial documents, the rules that governed the "corrales de comedias" where it was performed, the documentation on theater companies, which is still preserved today and that allows us to reconstruct it, although not totally, but partially, is of such variety and abundance that we can glimpse and get an idea of the richness, wonder and importance, in its own moment, of this literary, historical, social and cultural phenomenon. A phenomenon that, with greater or lesser fortune, survived over the centuries and that brought the Spanish theater from Madrid toAmsterdam, where Lope was seen more than any other Dutch author, and not only to Amsterdam, but also to Paris, Germany, and Denmark. or to Lithuania. Or that he caused pre-revolutionary choirs to be sung after Fuenteovejuna's performance when it was performed in Moscow in 1870. That poets such as Goethe or Federico García Lorca would notice and inspire him. This is how a cultural richness and a literary tradition that continues to this day was born and survived. Our object of attention will be multiple from literary authors and texts to theater companies and representations; from copyists of manuscripts or the role played by printers, to translations, recasts, adaptations and versions; from the influence of the evolution of aesthetic ideas to the political instrumentalization of the theater. And from the premiere at the time or a representation of the time in Alcorcón to the classical theater festivals or the National Classical Theater Company or the premiere in Tokyo in the 21st century, as a reality fully alive at the time, and alive today. The entire course will also be guided by a constant observation of the richness and digitization procedures of our bibliographic and cultural heritage.
In block 2, the work of Cervantes will be studied as an archetype of the different literary traditions that make up the Spanish Golden Age: from classical Greco-Roman literature to contemporary Italian, through epic, chivalric books, picaresque, etc. Therefore, we will analyze how all these elements come together in Cervantes' texts, in order to actually draw a fairly complete panorama of the multiple trends, fashions and genres that coexist in the West in the transition from the 16th to the 17th century. This perspective will allow us to understand, in a second moment of the course, the birth of another tradition that begins with Cervantes: the modern novel.
The course will combine theoretical sessions with practical ones. In the latter, selected fragments of Cervantes'works will be read, comparing them with their sources to understand how their use is specified in each case (direct, indirect, literal, parodic, etc.).

Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

BLOCK I:
Propedeutics:
All students are considered to have taken a course in their career where attention has been paid to the theater of the Golden Age. Those who consider that their knowledge might not be sufficient can read Ignacio Arellano's book:
Ignacio Arellano, Historia del teatro español del siglo XVII, Cátedra, Madrid, 2005.
In the current circumstances, the most prudent option could be to buy it in a bookstore or those who live abroad online. All students are considered to have read in a good annotated edition (editorials Cátedra, Crítica, Castalia) at least one of the following works:
Lope de Vega, Fuenteovejuna, El caballero de Olmedo (ed. Francisco Rico), El castigo sin venganza (ed. Alejandro García Reidy), Tirso de Molina, Don Gil de las calzas verdes; Pedro Calderón de la Barca, La vida es sueño (ed. Evangelina Rodríguez Cuadros or José María Ruano de la Haza).
These works can also be translated for foreign students, but only if these translations are accompanied by clarifying notes and the corresponding preliminary study or introductory study. There are two editions that are digitalized online and that may be useful for foreign students:
Lope de Vega, Fuenteovejuna, edición del grupo de investigación PROLOPE en colaboración con la compañía Rakatá, PPU, Barcelona, 2009. [enlace]
Lope de Vega, El castigo sin venganza, edición del grupo de investigación PROLOPE en colaboración con Fundación Siglo de Oro, PPU, Barcelona, 2010. [enlace]
Two online editions are offered for students who know the works and editions mentioned so far and who want, freely, to expand their background (it is not mandatory and it is advisable, in this case, to pay attention not only to the work but also to the type of edition and understand the new ways of accessing literary heritage):
