The author argues that, due to political and social factors, this form of popular entertainment was the only true expression of the people's voice during the period. Analyzing works by Antonio Josà da Silva, Nicolau Luiz, and others, the author explores the genre's themes and characters. From the underlying political satire to the celebration of the common man, this book paints a vivid picture of the low comedy theater's significance in the history of Portuguese drama.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book extensively examines the evolution of Portuguese theater during the 18th century. During this period, a dramatic shift occurred, marked by a transition from Autos, the popular medieval morality plays, to an array of new forms: comedies, tragedies, and operas. The author explores the significant influence of the Italian opera on Portuguese productions and discusses the work of key figures such as Antonio Josà da Silva, Nicolau Luiz, and Sebastião Xavier Botelho, all of whom played pivotal roles in the development of Portuguese theater during this transformative era. This book offers a valuable contribution to our understanding of Portuguese theater and its historical context, capturing the rise of new genres, artistic influences, and cultural shifts.
