Abstract
En el presente trabajo analizaré el peso que el mito de Lope de Vega tiene a la hora de adjudicarle la autoría de algunas piezas breves, pues se exigen para ello unas garantías totalmente legítimas desde el punto de vista científico, aunque tal vez un tanto radicales desde el de la sensatez filológica. Además, defenderé su concurso en uno de los subgéneros que más se le han negado: el baile dramático. Para ello, intentaré aportar pruebas que demuestren que el Fénix no sólo estuvo interesado en este tipo de creaciones, sino que, de hecho, compuso alguna que se puso en escena en fiestas palaciegas a comienzos de la década de 1630.
This paper analyzes the significance and consequences of Lope de Vega’s status as a legend when it comes to accepting his authorship of a few short plays, given that critics tend to demand extra proof in this matter, sometimes going beyond reasonable philological demands. I will also defend the idea that Lope was an author of dramatic dances, one of the subgenres which critics have always been reluctant to link with his name. To this end, I will cite evidence to prove that ‘el Fénix’ not only felt an interest in these sort of plays but also composed some which were staged in courtly performances in the early 1630s.
