From the middle of the 18th century until the beginning of the 19th century, a series of ethical and aesthetic controversies about theatre and music took place in Iberian territory. They affected different spheres, especially the political, religious, administrative and scenic. This was a complex time, when changes would lead to the transition from the Ancien Régime to the Contemporary era. In Spain, several enlightened intellectuals expressed ideas about theatrical music and musical theatre, basing on a consideration of the stage as a tool for education and social moulding. Consequently, they criticised certain traditional genres such as the tonadilla madrileña. In Portugal, the prohibitions of theatrical activities by Queen Maria I were important. This PhD deals with the Iberian phenomenon from a mainly Galician perspective: study of the controversies that took place in Galicia (relating them to those produced elsewhere), analysis of Galician characters in stage plays outside the northwest of the Peninsula (especially tonadilla, villancico, farça and entremés) and observation of the confluence of cultures in the North thanks to the arrival of itinerant theatre companies (Italian from Lisbon and Porto, as well as Hispanic from Castilla).
