| dc.description.abstract | The Filipino komedya and the Italian maggio are contemporary traditions of sung popular theatre that use written librettos drawing on European chivalrous verse romances. Their present-day forms, themes and performance practice reflect the intercultural contact and conflict that have characterised their histories. After introducing case studies drawn from the Filipino komedya and the Italian maggio, the paper surveys the history of performance traditions associated with the chivalrous romance, including review of contemporary survivals in a number of performance media, and the use of writing in these and other popular traditions. In order to explain the striking parallels in present-day manifestations of both komedya and maggio, it is necessary to grasp the complex but largely hidden history of dramatic performances that have accompanied the published verse romances. | en_AU |
