Preservar, describir e identificar comedias sueltas antiguas: incógnitas y hallazgos bibliográficos

Abstract

In this paper we intend to address the difficulties raised by the preservation, description and identification of old Spanish theatre chapbooks, a publishing genre neglected by critics and sometimes forgotten by libraries or archives due to its overwhelming number, but also as a consequence of the bibliographic problems it presents. In recent years, the computer resources available to us have made it easier to create resources that promote the research of this group of printed editions. The new tools have allowed us to understand the importance of this editorial genre in the theatre of the Golden Age, since the theatre chapbooks sometimes preserve first or unique editions in the context of the dramatic heritage of the seventeenth century.
