Abstract
VEGA CARDENAS, Alfredo. A Disciplinary Representation in Three Acts: Book review of Restauración de los títeres de Rosete Aranda y época de oro del guiñol (Restoration of Rosete Aranda’s Puppetry and the Golden Age of Puppet Theater). Intervención (Méx. DF) [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.16, pp.88-92. ISSN 2007-249X.
This REVIEW analyses Restauración de los títeres de Rosete Aranda y época de oro del guiñol (Restoration of Rosete Aranda’s puppetry and the golden age of puppet theater, Montero, González y Chacón 2017), a book that presents the development of two restoration projects for the collections cited therein. Furthermore, it examines the main epistemological elements of the institutional initiatives that support the research and restoration of the pieces and, based on the notions of functionality and authenticity, studies the way in which both experiences reflect the interdisciplinary dimension of restoration, as well as the cognitive, discursive, and methodological processes of the restorer, with specific reference to the Mexican context.
Keywords : puppetry; restoration; functionality; authenticity; interdisciplinary; Mexico.
