Book description

'Domus' aborda ejemplos de la dramaturgia y la narrativa corta del siglo XVII español en tanto formas estéticas que respondieron al desarrollo del mundo doméstico nobiliario y urbano de la Península Ibérica. Propone un recorrido por el terreno de lo habitable, incluyendo la arquitectura y decoración interior de la casa, las dinámicas de género, la economía doméstica y la utilización de los objetos, la luz y el espacio, deteniéndose en aspectos históricos que transformaron el hogar de la temprana modernidad así como también la imaginación creativa de los autores barrocos. Este estudio señala que la comedia urbana, el teatro breve y la novela cortesana ilustran tanto la importancia de temas domésticos en la ficción, como la percepción barroca de que la casa fue un escenario único para teatralizar la domesticidad.'Domus' delves into examples of the drama and short fiction of seventeenth-century Spanish as aesthetic forms that responded to the development of the nobility and urban domestic world of the Iberian Peninsula. The book offers a journey through the realm of the habitable, including architecture and the interior decoration of the house; gender dynamics; domestic economy and the use of objects; and light and space, stopping along the way to consider the historical aspects that transformed the early modern home as well as the creative imagination of the authors of the Baroque. This study shows that urban comedy, theatre and the courtly novel illustrate both the importance of domestic issues in fiction and the Baroque perception that the house was a unique stage for dramatizing domesticity.Noelia S.
