- The four neoclassical Spanish Harnlets: assirnilation and revision Ángel Luis PUJANTE Keith GREGOR Lengua y Literatura This paper considers the four late eigh teenth- /early níneteenth- century Spanish translations ot Jean-Francois Ducis's H nmlel (both early and revised versions) as ins tances of the problematic relation between Spanish Shakespeares and French neoclassical sou rces in Ihe per iod preceding and also postda ting the Napoleonic invasion. Ranging from lhe fírsl Span ish version of the play atlribuled lo Ramón de la Cruz, whieh was fírsl perfomed in 1772, lo José María de Carnerero's 1825 rendering for a production whích appears never lo have taken place, through Ihe anonymous man uscr ipt kept al the Biblioteca Menéndez Pelavo in Santander and Antonio de Saviñ ón's 'liberal' versión of the 18105, the texts d iscussed are viewed as sites of both assimilation of, and resistance to, the didaetic and earefu lly regulated tragedies of an earlier epoeh. At the same time, and given that al least three of these translations seem to have been intend ed for performance or, as in the case of de la Cruz 's, definitely reached the stage, the texts conce rned, however remote they may be from the Shakespea rean original, were, it is argued, the only kind of 'Shakespeare' available in a number of Euro pean countries includ ing Spain. As such they shou ld be seen as playing their par l both in lhe evolution of lhe Hamlel 'myth' and in the sprea d ofS hakespeare 's work on the continent. 2005 artículo científico 1135-7789 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=333527601008 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3335 SEDERI Yearbook application/pdf Spanish and Portuguese Society for English Renaissance Studies SEDERI Yearbook (España) Num.15
