Publisher Description: This exciting study is essential reading for students and scholars of theater. It challenges the premise of most critical interpretations of the comedia, which are based on the notion of the originality of Lope de Vega's dramatic theory and practice and his repudiation of Classical models and the Senecan style, which formed the nucleus of sixteenth-century tragedy-, a popular but short-lived form. |
