摘要：

The article analyses the figure of Espartero in political theatre from 1836 to 1879. Its goal is to discover the ideas and political images which playwrights spread about this general, in order to influence public opinion. His figure as a liberal warlord was long-lasting, but his image as a leader underwent some changes with the revolutions of the time. Civil war theatre shows a victorious military warlord who, upon defeating the Carlist tyrant, reaches the rank of liberator of Spain. The theatre of 1840 distinguishes him as a national hero, peacekeeping father of the homeland and political warlord, idol to the people. In 1854 his political figure is mythicised as warlord of the people, who leads them to a redeeming victory. In 1868 the myth turns him into the symbol of freedom which unites those who aspire to a democracy. His candidacy for king of Spain would be defended from the stage as the only patriotic solution for a free and democratic nation. If the plays of 1840 and 1854 served to legitimize him in power, those of 1843 and 1856, on the contrary, justified his fall.
