Abstract

Theatre has been a distinctive feature of Jesuit education from the very first years. Miguel Venegas, teacher of Rhetoric at Coimbra College and co-author (with his pupils) of some kolossal biblical dramas, staged between 1559-1562, gave a crucial contribution tothe prestige of Jesuit colleges. His tragedies provide a forceful pedagogical example. Furthermore, the outstanding quality of Venegas’ plays gives an outlook on the influence of Jesuit college theatre on the future Baroque masterworks.
