Abstract

The analysis of various circumstances related to how theatrical texts were fixed in the silent realm of manuscripts or printed books shows the losses entailed by the «institutionalization» of a genre that was originally conceived for noisy stages.

This paper reviews some of the mechanisms by which theatrical performances become manuscripts or printed books through the first half of the 16th century Spanish drama.
