| Summary |
"Historia de la literatura y del arte dramático en España, tomo I" by Schack is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the development of Spanish literature and drama, aiming to fill a noticeable gap in existing literature on Spanish theatrical history. The author meticulously researches and presents the rich traditions, influences, and notable figures that have shaped the landscape of Spanish drama. The opening of this work introduces the author, Adolfo Federico, Conde de Schack, detailing his educational background, literary aspirations, and extensive travels that cultivated his interest in various languages and cultures. It highlights his motivations for writing the book, emphasizing the absence of a comprehensive literary history in Spain and his ambition to document the nation's dramatic arts, inspired by the works of Spanish poets and dramatists. Schack reflects on the challenges of collating and critiquing Spanish literature while asserting the importance of understanding the richness of national traditions in fostering a vibrant theatrical culture.
