Declining or Waning
- Traditional Historical Narratives:
There has been a noticeable decrease in research that strictly adheres to traditional historical narratives of Calderón's life and works, with scholars increasingly favoring more nuanced and critical approaches that interrogate established views. - Static Textual Analysis:
The journal has seen a decline in purely static textual analyses, as there is a growing preference for dynamic interpretations that consider performance history and audience reception, rather than solely focusing on the texts themselves. - Limited Focus on Lesser-Known Works:
Studies concentrating on Calderón's lesser-known works have become less frequent, as the field tends to prioritize more prominent plays, potentially overlooking the richness of his broader oeuvre. - Narrow Genre Studies:
Research that confines itself to narrow genre studies, such as exclusively examining only one type of Calderón's plays, has diminished, with a more interdisciplinary and genre-blending approach now preferred. - Conventional Gender Studies:
There has been a decline in conventional gender studies that merely categorize Calderón's works within binary frameworks, as scholars seek more complex readings that explore gender as a fluid and multifaceted concept.
