This is one of three digital books produced by the Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities and the Institute of Performing Arts at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) as part of the research project “Theater, Politics, and University: Córdoba, 1965-1975.”
The three books are being published jointly by the Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities Press and the Institute of Performing Arts of the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters (UBA). As Jorge Dubatti points out in the prologue “Towards a Cartography of Argentine Theaters” of the book that begins the series, “these three volumes represent a fundamental contribution to the knowledge of Argentine theaters (in the plural) and to the construction of an increasingly complex and rich national theatrical cartography,” adding that “the research works brought together in the three volumes fulfill this condition of radical cartography, mapped thinking, and an invitation to dialogue on cartographies beyond Córdoba.”
The works were produced as part of the research project “Theater, Politics, and University: Córdoba, 1965-1975,” carried out between 1996 and 1999 at the Center for Advanced Studies, directed by Horacio Crespo and co-directed by Nora Zaga. The project was subsequently based, between 2000 and 2010, at the Research Center of the Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities (UNC), under the direction of Adriana Musitano and co-directed by Nora Zaga.
The publication of the three volumes was subsidized by the Secretariat of Science and Technology, National University of Córdoba, and endorsed by the Department of Theater of the Faculty of Arts (UNC), the Argentine Association of Theater Research and Criticism (AINCRIT), and the Latin American Network of Performing Arts Documentation Centers.
