In this presentation we made use of Just some of the books available in the collection, they have been indexed and further they will be on the website. We took in consideration the affinity with the Brazilian Theater, that’s why we chosen books related to latin languages because they are closer to our theater.
The Dramaturgy is not related at this moment, since it would demand much time, forasmuch the collection contains more than 1.000 (a thousand) theatrical texts between national and foreign ones.
Also appart here are the vast collection of theatrical magazines, such as: Avant’Scene, Travail Théâtral, Il Drama and Sipario, most of them organized since their first issue. Le Théatre (bimontly magazine illustrated in 20 bound tomes) from 1898 to 1908.
