La Celestina en escenarios argentinos: observaciones comparatistas sobre las adaptaciones de Jorge Goldenberg (1993) y Daniel Suárez Marzal (2007)

Abstract

This article proposes a comparative study about La Celestina and the relations between Contemporary Argentine Theatre and Medieval Theatre. The principal question is: how dramatic rewriting introduces changes in medieval texts for their representations out of their original context, in Buenos Aires, in the 20th-21st centuries, from new conceptions of theatralical poetics and considering that La Celestina is included in the scholar canon of official education in Argentina. First, it is considered La Celestina performance –adapted by the director Daniel Suárez Marzal (2007, Complejo Teatral de Buenos Aires, Teatro Regio)–, then it takes place the comparative analysis (some aspects of the narrative structure and textual level) with another rewriting by the dramatist Jorge Goldenberg (1993, Teatro Municipal San Martín).
