The Dramatic World of Valle-Inclan

Valle-Inclan considered as actor, director and playwright, with bibliography of his plays.

Daring, innovative, controversial, often satirical, a dramatist ahead of his time, Ram?n del Valle-Incl?n (1866-1936) was one of Spain's 'Generation of 1898', and an influence on such later movements as the Theatre of Cruelty andthe Theatre of the Absurd. Lima's study first examines Valle-Incl?n's day-to-day involvement with the theatre as actor, director-dramaturg and playwright. This is followed by an account of Valle-Inclan's full-length and one-act plays, which demonstrate the foibles and follies of human behaviour, and are discussed here under a variety of thematic headings.

There follows an up-to-date bibliography of the plays, from editions contemporary with the author through those published posthumously; it includes translations of the dramas into many languages, as well as a worldwide selection of critical studies.

ROBERT LIMA is Professor Emeritus of Spanish and Comparative Literatures, The Pennsylvania State University.

Ram?n del Valle-Incl?n (1866-1936) era un dramaturgo muy innovador, miembro de la Generaci?n del '98, pero tambi?n una fuente de inspiracion mas tarde para el Teatro de la Crueldad y el Teatro del Absurdo. La monograf?a de Lima empieza por examinar el rol desempe?ado por Valle-Incl?n como actor, director, y dramaturgo. Concluye con un an?lisis detallado de los dramas de Valle-Incl?n, tanto los grandes comolos menores, enfoc?ndose en la manera en que el dramaturgo espa?ol crea una visi?n penetrante de los errores y debilidades de la conducta humana; la obra dram?tica se analiza en varias secciones tem?ticas. Esta monograf?a taincluye una bibliograf?a exhaustiva sobre los dramas de Valle-Incl?n, incluyendo traducciones y estudios cr?ticos.
