The scenic and literary censorship of the theater of Luis Vélez de Guevara
Abstract
The case of Luis Vélez is significant in the analysis of censorship due to the number of works affected, the diversity of censors involved, the variety of topics, the different times and the different processes identified (self-censorship, application for licenses and prohibitions). From this playwright it is observed that the censorship used the texts as an object to support an dictum prior to the representation, but regardless of what the result was, there was no follow-up of the textual transmission. The government censor apparatus of the theater focused its attention on the exhibition before the uncultivated popular classes.
