Este volumen monográfico reúne un conjunto de ensayos dedicados a estudiar el metateatro. Los recursos metateatrales (ya se trate de «teatro en el teatro» o de «teatro sobre el teatro») hacen hincapié en la ficcionalidad de lo que se representa y fuerzan tanto a los personajes como a los espectadores a ser conscientes de las convenciones teatrales y cómo se rompen intencionalmente. Podemos incluso encontrarnos con personajes que se convierten en verdaderos autores o directores de escena, y que con sus invenciones y fingimientos marcan el desarrollo de la acción dramática. Las reflexiones de trece expertos internacionales se acercan al tema desde un enfoque multidisciplinar que se detiene en materias de gran calado como cuestiones de hermenéutica, dramaturgia y puesta en escena, los conceptos de originalidad e intertextualidad, y aspectos históricos y sociales.

The aim of this book is to explore the definition(s) of 'theatre' and 'metatheatre' that scholars use when studying the ancient Greek world. Although in modern languages their meaning is mostly straightforward, both concepts become problematical when applied to ancient reality. In fact, 'theatre' as well as 'metatheatre' are used in many different, sometimes even contradictory, ways by modern scholars. Through a series of papers examining questions related to ancient Greek theatre and dramatic performances of various genres the use of those two terms is problematized and put into question. Must ancient Greek theatre be reduced to what was performed in proper theatre-buildings? And is everything was performed within such buildings to be considered as 'theatre'? How does the definition of what is considered as theatre evolve from one period to the other? As for 'metatheatre', the discussion revolves around the interaction between reality and fiction in dramatic pieces of all genres. The various definitions of 'metatheatre' are also explored and explicited by the papers gathered in this volume, as well as the question of the distinction between paratheatre (understood as paratragedy/comedy) and metatheatre. Readers will be encouraged by the diversity of approaches presented in this book to re-think their own understanding and use of 'theatre' and 'metatheatre' when examining ancient Greek reality.

Este volumen reúne un conjunto de estudios sobre el metateatro. Los autores se acercan al tema desde una variedad de enfoques críticos, altamente interdisciplinares.
