Entre ética y estética: la censura del teatro de Agustín Moreto

espanolLas comedias de Agustin Moreto tuvieron una gran fortuna editorial en especial en el siglo XVIII, en que fueron –junto a las de Calderon– las mas editadas. Resultado de ello es que se conservan numerosos ejemplares impresos y algunos manuscritos de ese periodo, varios con marcas y notas de censura. Nos centramos aqui en ejemplares conservados en la Biblioteca Nacional de Espana y en la Biblioteca Historica Municipal de Madrid, donde se guarda una importante coleccion de comedias sueltas impresas en el siglo XVIII. Tambien se observan ejemplares de los siglos XVII y XIX. Dilucidar si estas notas manuscritas sobre las comedias de Moreto fueron realizadas por calificadores del Santo Oficio, por autores de comedias o miembros de las companias, incluso por impresores, no es tarea facil. Se hace aqui una incursion en ejemplares conservados y hasta ahora no analizados desde ese punto de vista. EnglishThe plays of Agustin Moreto enjoyed great publishing success especially in the 18th century, in that they were the most edited, together with those of Calderon. The numerous printed copies and some manuscripts that are dated from that period, some of which have censorship markings and notes, evidence this result. We limit our scope to those copies that are stored in the Biblioteca Nacional of Spain and in the Biblioteca Historica Municipal of Madrid, where an important collection of printed sueltas of the plays from the 18th century are housed. In addition, there are other copies dating from the 17th and 19th centuries. It is not an easy task in trying to explain if these written notes present in Moreto’s plays were made by officers of the Holy Office, by autores of plays or by members of the theatre companies, or even by the printers. The aim here is to carry out a study of these preserved copies that have not been analysed from this perspective until now.
