José Echegaray
Echegaray
also: Эчегерая, Эчегерай
José Echegaray, the Spanish dramatist, cited here in passing as an example of a playwright whose work can be staged modestly ("in a bourgeois drawing room"), in explicit contrast to the outsized production demands of Bezhetsky's (Maslov's) play. First appearance in this corpus; no further biographical detail is given or should be assumed from this single mention.
Reading notes
- To A. S. Suvorin, 28 November 1888. Moscow. §7 Echegaray can be played in a bourgeois drawing room, but for Maslov one needs to raise cathedrals and graveyards.
