Abstract

During the lengthy period comprising 1894 to 1972, there was a wide diffusion of the work of Àngel Guimerà on stages, in the press, and on screens throughout Argentina. Apart from focusing on its implementation, this article presents several examples of transformations of Guimerà’s Terra baixa and the reappropriation of the text with various results within the political and social context of Argentina. Buenos Aires, a Latin American cultural metropolis, functioned as the melting pot of the American and the European routes for the internationalization of the Catalan play with the greatest international dissemination.
