Abstract

In the twentieth century, ancient theatres acquired symbolic values through their excavation, restoration, and cultural reuse. While elsewhere in the Mediterranean comparable cases show an early and powerful engagement of a populace with their antiquities, in Spain national ideals did not automatically engage with classical culture. In the case of the Roman theatre of Merida, cultural and historical realities dictated a series of cultural events that repeatedly concerned collective memory. In addition to the main sequence of the unique occasions surrounding the 1933 and 1934 performances at the theatre, various other agencies had systematically focused on its exploitation from the 1910s. These initiatives were endorsed by numerous formal visits and cultural events that took place in the theatre, from as early as 1914. Through successive spectacles staged at the theatre, a cultural tradition emerged, while political agendas occasionally exploited its increasing popularity, right up to the Spanish Civil War.

集体记忆与西班牙文化政治：梅里达罗马剧院的复兴（1910-35年）

摘要

在20世纪，古代剧院通过挖掘，修复和文化重用获得了象征价值。尽管地中海其他地方的可比案例表明，平民早日和他们的文物有力地融合在一起，但在西班牙，民族理想并没有自动融入古典文化。以梅里达罗马剧院为例，文化和历史现实决定了一系列与集体记忆有关的文化事件。除了围绕1933年和1934年在剧院演出的独特场合的主要顺序外，其他各种机构也系统地将重点放在1910年代的剧院上。早在1914年，剧院就进行了无数次正式访问和文化活动，这些举措得到了认可。
