What tensions exist between the more ?permanent? written texts (manuscripts, *sueltas*, *partes,* other published source texts, editions, translations) and ephemeral performance texts of early modern Iberian Theater? What conditions have made the impact of the *Comedia* and other early modern Iberian theatrical forms less long-lasting? What conditions made theatrical performance difficult or unstable in early modern Spain? What conditions make the performance of Hispanic classical theater difficult today? Do the *comedias* and other plays themselves take up the themes of ephemerality or durability, fragility or continuity?
