Abstract

The "Teatro Galego" collection, published by Pico Sacro (1975-1977), represents a milestone in the theatre and publishing history of Galicia as the first imprint to specialise in the publication of dramatic literature in Galician. This article analyses the origin and characteristics of the collection, the criteria used for the selection of works, and the design and formal aspect of the books produced. It also looks at the dissemination and reception of the imprint, and its impact and significance in the history of 20th-century Galician theatre. While not extensive, the "Teatro Galego" catalogue reflects perfectly the atmosphere of revival and renewal in Galician dramatic writing in the 1970s.
