La notable popularidad de este autor es analizada en términos cuantitativos y cualitativos; a saber, empleando datos numéricos para identificar cuántas de las obras traducidas eran suyas para después examinar la frecuencia y la manera en que fue mencionado. Este método ha demostrado ofrecer nuevas perspectivas para el estudio de las imágenes de «el otro», dado que la estrategia de venderlas como «españolas» o «neerlandesas» refleja los gustos, intereses y debates predominantes en la sociedad de entonces. PALABRAS CLAVE: Lope de Vega, Siglo de Oro neerlandés, estrategias de mercado, imagología, opinión pública. ABSTRACT: This article studies the manner in which Spanish theatre plays in their Dutch translation were sold in Amsterdam between 1617 and 1672, with an emphasis in Lope de Vega’s works. His remarkable popularity is analysed in quantitative and qualitative terms; that is, employing numeric data concerning how many of the translated plays were his, while also paying attention to how often his name was mentioned and in which fashion. This method has proved insightful when studying images of «the other», for the manner of selling these translations as «Spanish» or «Dutch» reflects the reigning tastes, interests and debates in society. KEY WORDS: Lope de Vega, Dutch Golden Age, marketing strategies, imagology, public opinion. Arte Nuevo, 1, 2014: 1-15 Álvarez Francés 2 It is vox populi that many Spanish drama authors, with Lope de Vega as leading figure, were translated1 in Amsterdam in the Golden Age. Their works became significantly popular in the local theatre, the Schouwburg, which triggered discussions between writers concerning the style they should be employing for their plays, either a classicist one, or that of the nueva comedia. With the opening of the Schouwburg in 1638, the need for theatre plays increased enormously and could not be satisfied by local writers alone. The presence of these translations has as well been analyzed as a proof of the changing taste of the public, which was undoubtedly the case; but they have never been used for further study of images of the other, of the enemy. In her study about the images the Dutch had of the Spanish around 1650, Marijke Meijer Drees states that «there had always been [throughout the seventeenth century] admiration for Spain»2 giving as an example, among other signs, the enormous amount of Dutch literature that was influenced by Spanish examples. However, her research is based on political texts and all of her sources circulated in elite and learned circles. The present paper aims to get closer to the evolution of public opinion concerning the Spanish by studying Lope de Vega’s popularity as well as the manner his plays were brought in the book market of seventeenth-century Amsterdam. Through the study of marketing strategies this article thus contributes to the field of Imagology, which originates in Comparative Literature. Image studies or Imagology is an approach that aims at surveying explicit images of the own nationality as well as those concerning the other identified groups. It was severely criticised -among others- by Wellek in 1963 for its underlying patriotism, which led to a positivistic, nationalist study, and was therefore detrimental to the research3. Accordingly, Imagology has been stripped off an essentialist point of view throughout the twentieth century and images have been progressively regarded as constructed ideas. This implies that researchers do not consider the existence of a ‘Spanish character’ for instance, but rather of an ‘idea of what is Spanish’, either conceived by the Spanish self or by other groups. In addition, the interaction and 1 The terms ‘translation/translated’ and ‘adaptation/adapted’ will be used indistinctly in this article given that no study has been dedicated to establishing the category the great majority of these plays pertain to. 2 Meijer Drees, 1997: 79. 3 Wellek, 1963. Arte Nuevo, 1, 2014: 1-15 Álvarez Francés 3 synchronism of these ideas are taken into account when carrying out an imagological analysis, thus respecting their susceptibility to change in contact with other images and their evolution through time. In 2007 the encyclopaedic compendium Imagology: The cultural construction and literary representation of national characters: A critical survey assembled by editors Beller and Leerssen was published. It reviews the history of images since Antiquity, the history of the field itself, and presents its key concepts and objectives4. Questions I have tried to answer using my sources are: How popular was Lope de Vega? How were
