| description | Amor de don Perlimplín con Belisa en sujardín– concluded in 1929 to be staged by Cipriano Rivas Cherif ’s independent company El Caracol– is a one of Federico García Lorca’s more innovative play in relation to his own investigation on the concept of “pure drama”. In between tradition and vanguard, i.e. in between the actor’s body and the puppet’s artificial one, the play is indeed a poetic realm where several aesthetic references can be traced, such as Goethe’s Faust or Classical mythology, taken from a Gongorian point of view. Furthermore, Amor de don Perlimplín is to be placed within a historical context of reinterpretation of gender and sexuality in Spain, by means of a constant sociological review. At this level, and in the background of Ortega y Gasset’s idea of “invertebrate nation”, takes place the disintegration of manhood as civilizational ideal. This paper aims to associate García Lorca’s poetic investigation – focused as it is on the subject of desire – with the very cultural debate of the 1920’s and 1930’s in Spain, highlighting the problems with censorship that the play had to deal with. |

Finalizada en 1929 para la puesta en escena de Cipriano Rivas Cherif en el grupo independiente El Caracol, Amor de don Perlimplín con Belisa en su jardín es una obra puntera en la investigación de Federico García Lorca sobre la idea de un “teatro puro”. Planteando los límites entre tradición y vanguardia, o entre el cuerpo del actor y el cuerpo artificial del teatro de títeres, la obra se constituye como un lugar poético hacia donde convergen múltiples referentes estéticos, como los influjos del Fausto de Goethe o la mitología clásica, filtrada desde una mirada gongorina. Además, Amor de don Perlimplín se sitúa en un momento histórico en el cual las visiones sobre género y sexualidad pasaban por una profunda revisión en las reflexiones sociológicas en España. En este panorama, sobresale la idea de “nación invertebrada”, de Ortega y Gasset, cuyo trasfondo radica en una desintegración de la hombría en cuanto ideal civilizador. El presente artículo busca relacionar la investigación poética de Lorca (radicada en el tema del deseo) con el contexto del debate cultural en la España de los años veinte y treinta, destacando los episodios de censura que la pieza de 1929 tuvo que afrontar. 2015-12-18 2022-03-18T16:20:45Z 2022-03-18T16:20:45Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/letras/article/view/8269 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/61792 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/letras/article/view/8269/5597 Copyright (c) 2015 Revista de Letras application/pdf Revista de Letras Revista de Letras Revista de Letras; Vol. 54 No. 2 (2014) Revista de Letras; v. 54 n. 2 (2014) 1981-7886 0101-3505 |
