Abstract

The aim of this doctoral thesis is the edition, with notes and commentaries, of the versions of Sá de Mirandas comedy Os Estrangeiros contained in the Manuscrito Asensio and in the João de Barreiras 1559 published edition, which will be followed by a comparison between them and with a third source text, the edition by M. Rodrigues Lapa, version which corresponds to the text of the 1561 edition and which differs almost completely from the versions found in both of the other sources. The Asensio Manuscript is an important document of its time with fits together texts from the first half of the sixteenth century and which is kept in the National Library of Lisbon. The Chapter I of this work is dedicated to the semi-diplomatic edition of this manuscript version of the comedy, which will be followed by a chapter which brings a modernized edition of the same text. From the 1559 edition rests only one volume which remains at Houghton Library, Harvard University, and its text shows such amount of differences in relation to the manuscript text that it might be considered a version. A transcription of this version will be presented at Chapter III, also followed by a chapter containing a modernized edition. Chapter V presents the comparison between the three sources. Os Estrangeiros is more than a literary and linguistic document, it is also a historical document of the Portuguese and Italian 16th century. For this reason, a short essay will be presented at the Introduction of this work about the relations between the author, its work, its world and its time, beyond further information about the research sources.
