  • Memories of Plays and a Playwright

    Víctor DixonARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2017

    The author tells the story of his involvement with the playwright. It began with four productions of plays by Buero, between 1966 and 1973, at the University of Manchester, correspondence about them, and a first encounter in Chester in 1968. But as the dramatist's works became a major topic of the academic's teaching and research, their relationship developed, via further meetings in Madrid and frequent exchanges of letters and cards (several ext…

  • El castigo sin venganza

    Víctor DixonARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2015

    The outstanding merit of Lope's tragedy ‘al estilo español’ lies in his depiction of its trio of protagonists, but almost all its critics have overlooked his innovative and complex uses of its gracioso, Batín, who is present for 42% of the action, and whose successive appearances are analysed here. Though he starts, as usual, as the down-to-earth companion and counterpart of the play's young hero, he is forced by his master's repeated refusals to…

  • The Impact of the Civil War on the Life and Work of Antonio Buero Vallejo

    Víctor DixonARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2014

    This essay begins with an account of the third decade of Buero Vallejo's life, from the outbreak of the Civil War to his release from imprisonment thereafter in 1946, in the course of which he abandoned his original vocation as a graphic artist to become Spain's leading playwright throughout the second half of the century. It proceeds to demonstrate the enormous influence of those ten years on almost all his thirty works for the stage, and conclu…

  • New (and Ancient) Lights on the Life of Juan Pérez de Montalbán

    Víctor DixonARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies2013

    This article, based partly on data contained in its author's unpublished doctoral thesis, and conceived as a tribute to Don Cruickshank's masterly biography Don Pedro Calderón, offers a brief account of the life of that dramatist's coeval, collaborator and friend, Juan Pérez de Montalbán. After an initial section on his family, in particular his father, the important bookseller and publisher Alonso Pérez, it gives details of Montalbán's many year…

    In a companion piece to the present study I have documented Buero Vallejo's love of music throughout his life, and have argued that it had an increasing influence on his writing for the stage in th

  • The Symbolism of Peribáñez

    Víctor DixonARTICLEBulletin of Spanish Studies1966

    One cannot talk or write today about Peribanez y el Comendador de Ocana without acknowledging an inestimable debt to the perceptive study by Professor E. M. Wilson, a study which, far more than any other, has deepened our understanding of the play. The present writer therefore accepts as proven almost everything he has argued, and in particular his conclusion that the main moral purpose of the play is the exemplification of discrecion. Indeed, al…
