Testimonio único y voluntad de autor
A propósito de algunas comedias póstumas de Lope de Vega
Abstract
A critical edition has, among its main goals, the delimitation and transmission of the author’s last will. However, this is almost impossible to establish with certainty. It is even more so when the work in question has only been preserved in a single witness and when the work was published after the author’s death and, consequently, without his control or revision. This chapter focuses on the coincidence of this double circumstance using some of Lope de Vega’s plays as study cases.
