Earliest blackface

[edit]

The article is deficient because it claims that this is not the earliest blackface performance, contrary to what some sources say, but all it uses as evidence is an example of one of the sources that does cite this as the earliest. There is no evidence of earlier performances included. ChikeJ (talk) 22:53, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Spanish title

[edit]

I see that "El celoso estremeño" by Miguel de Cervantes is translated here as "The Jealous Husband". That may be the name under which an English translation exists, but we should probably also explicate. Estremeño is presumably an archaic form of Extremeño, someone from Extremadura, a region of Spain. I'd suggest that we just link estremeño to Extremadura. Any problem with that? -- Jmabel | Talk 01:40, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

None at all. I know no Spanish, let alone archaic Spanish, so I just went with Nathan's translation. —BrianSmithson 05:18, 12 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
