Resumen del libro
Two of the most famous playwrights of Spain's Golden Age were Lope de Vega and Francisco de Rojas Zorrilla. The three plays in this volume, based on similar sources to Shakespeare's and Webster's versions, provide a fascinating comparison to their Jacobean counterparts. A full introduction sets the plays in context and provides a thorough study of the individual works. Gwynne Edwards is one of Britain's most prolific translators of literature from Spanish, including his acclaimed editions of Federico Garcia Lorca's plays.
