Abstract
Este trabajo propone revelar, desde la perspectiva de la Retórica, la manera en que se
representa a Shakespeare en la prensa canaria del siglo XIX. En consonancia con los
estudios de recepción de la época, se muestra al artista de una forma elogiosa,
confiriéndole un aura de ser extraordinario y, en ocasiones, sobrenatural. A partir del
corpus utilizado, se ofrece una clasificación de figuras retóricas que fomentan la
interacción con el lector, y el deseo de los autores de compartir la visión laudatoria del
poeta y dramaturgo. En concreto, y teniendo en cuenta el efecto que las palabras de
los cronistas pueden tener sobre los lectores acerca del escritor inglés, se utiliza la
clasificación que realizaron Perelman y Olbrechts-Tyteca, que distinguen entre figuras
de elección, presencia y comunión. Se trata de expresar el efecto que ciertas figuras
pueden tener a la hora de elegir ciertos términos, de aumentar la impresión de la
presencia de Shakespeare, y de establecer la comunión con el auditorio para que se
sientan inclinados a compartir las tesis de los comentaristas.
This paper seeks to reveal, from a rhetorical perspective, the way in which Shakespeare is portrayed in the press of the Canary Islands in the nineteenth century. In accordance with the studies of reception carried out at that time, the artist is shown in commendatory terms and he is granted an extraordinary, even supernatural, aura. The corpus used for this study provides a classification of rhetorical figures, one that focuses on the interaction with the reader and the authors’ wish to share the admiring image of the poet and playwright. Bearing in mind the effect that the critics’ words can have when they regard the English writer, I use Perelman and Olbrechts-Tyteca’s classification, who distinguish among figures of choice, presence and communion. This classification is intent on determining the effect that certain figures can have in the choice of some words, in the increase of Shakespeare’s presence, and in the establishment of communion with the audience so that they feel inclined to share the authors’ theses.
