Abstract

Over the last years, the Centre for Theatre Studies of the University of Lisbon has developed a set of tools and digital resources for the study of the History of Theatre. Its digital libraries contain scholarly editions of 16th and 17th century plays of Portuguese authors, along with the images of manuscripts and first editions. This set of materials dialogues with databases linked by a complex hypertext. Both the methodology and the digital tools led to the development of new perspectives in philology and theatre history. They may be regarded as a new paradigm for the research on classical Iberian drama.
