Abstract

Francisco de Avellaneda is one of the less famous dramatists of the seventeenth century: he acted as a censor, and is best known as an entremesista, but he also wrote a zarzuela, El templo de Palas. One of the British Library’s collected volumes of Spanish plays (T.1737) contains a copy of the only known edition (Naples, 1675) of the play, premiered in July 1675, probably in the Coliseo del Buen Retiro. The suelta provides the only known details of this performance, naming the actors who took part in the loa, entremés and mojiganga, and includes a letter from Calderón to Avellaneda, apologising for missing the performance because of his «poor health», thanking Avellaneda for lending him the borrador to read, and assuring him that he was able to imagine the performance from the written text. Avellaneda wrote one of the approbations for Calderón’s Cuarte parte in 1672, but the extent of his friendship with the dramatist is not clear.

Abstract

Plug In Electric Vehicles (PEVs) can contribute to the decarbonisation of the transport sector and to alleviate some of the negative local impacts of car driving. As current market shares for PEVs in Germany are still small, it is important to investigate the social acceptance of electric mobility, taking into account different actors in the innovation system. Therefore we draw a link between the social acceptance concept (socio-political, market and local acceptance) and the technological innovation systems (TIS) approach and conduct a literature review. The results show that the majority of studies deal with the demand side of electric mobility, focusing on market acceptance. For a transition towards an electric transport system a deeper systemic understanding of all actors is necessary. The paper shows where the potentials for further acceptance research on electric mobility lie and provides an approach, which can be developed further and transferred to similar technologies.
