Casuistical dialogue was a concern, even an obsession, of Spanish playwrights during the seventeenth century, many of whom were educated by Jesuit casuists. Conscience on Stage is a study of casuistry or case morality as the foundation for a poetics of seventeenth-century Spanish comedias.Hilaire Kallendorf examines the Jesuit upbringing and casuistical education of major playwrights of the Spanish Golden Age, many of whom were also priests, and introduces the vocabulary of casuistry, as expressed in both confessors' manuals and in stage plays. Engaging issues of class, gender, and age to explore scenes of advice-giving and receiving, she demonstrates how the culture-specific construct of 'conscience' in early modern Spain can be recovered by means of a Foucauldian genealogy, which enlists the skills of philology at the service of a larger vision of the history of ideas. This study outlines and reiterates the relationship of theatre to casuistry, the Jesuit contributions to Spanish literary theory and practice, and the importance of casuistry for the study of early modern subjectivity.University of Toronto romance series.Spanish drama (Comedy)History and criticismSpanish dramaClassical period, 1500-1700History and criticismChristianity in literatureCasuistry in literatureCasuistryConscience in literatureConfession in literatureConfession (Liturgy)Catholic ChurchHistory17th centurySpanish drama (Comedy)History and criticism.Spanish dramaHistory and criticism.Christianity in literature.Casuistry in literature.Casuistry.Conscience in literature.Confession in literature.Confession (Liturgy)Catholic ChurchHistory862/.05230903Kallendorf Hilaire1974-851624MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910826805103321Conscience on stage4046688UNINA
