Bernardo Antonio González
Bernardo Antonio González, Professor of Romance Languages and Literatures at Wesleyan University, has published widely on twentieth- and twenty-first-century Spanish theatre and performance. His essays in this field treat different playwrights (Fernando Fernán Gómez, Fernando Arrabal, Lauro Olmo, José María Rodríguez Méndez, Juan Mayorga, Antonio Martínez Ballesteros, Angélica Liddell); critics (Juan Chabás); companies (Madrid's Teatro de la Abadía and Teatro María Guerrero) and performances (Seneca's Medea in Mérida, 1933); dramatic theory and aesthetics (semiotics, popular theatre, experimental theatre); and noteworthy stage figures (the maquis, Antigone, the Harlequin). González is particularly interested in the relationship between stage production politics. He is currently preparing a book on Cipriano de Rivas Cherif's theatre-related writings and initiatives during and immediately following the Spanish Second Republic.
