El metateatro en los entremeses de José Julián López de Castro

Abstract
Starting from the well-known idea that short theatre is a very favorable terrain for meta-theatricality, in this work we seek to study the meta-theatrical features present in the interludes (entremeses) written by José Julián López de Castro, a Spanish poet and dramatist in the eighteenth-century. The choice of this object of study responds to the low interest that critics have given, on the one hand, to the life and work of this Madrid writer and, on the other, to the subject of meta-theatricality in the short dramatic pieces of the eighteenth-century Spanish. Partiendo de la idea consabida de que el teatro breve constituye un terreno harto propicio para la metateatralidad, en este artículo buscamos analizar los rasgos metateatrales presentes en los entremeses que escribió José Julián López de Castro, poeta y dramaturgo español setecentista. La elección de este objeto de estudio responde al escaso interés que la crítica literaria ha prestado, por un lado, a la vida y obra de este escritor madrileño y, por otro, al fenómeno de la metateatralidad en las piezas dramáticas breves del siglo XVIII español.
