About the Book

La presente monografia analiza las obras dramaticas de Lope de Vega, Tirso de Molina y Calderon de la Barca como reaccion a la inestabilidad politica y social de Espana en la primera mitad del siglo XVII. En contra de la interpretacion que presenta la comedia como un instrumento de propaganda de la monarquia, este estudio propone que muchos de los dramas escritos en este periodo funcionan a modo de velo que sutilmente revela una critica metaforica de los reinados de Felipe III y de Felipe IV. Tales dramas, con una funcion etica y politica y dentro del subgenero que definimos como "alegorias del poder", representan una serie de reflexiones sobre la buena y mala conducta del gobierno. Si bien sus argumentos estan tomados de la tradicion clasica, biblica, europea y de la historia de Espana, o de leyendas antiguas, tal cuerpo dramatico hace una severa reflexion sobre el gobierno justo y virtuoso y la puesta en practica de una moral recta y de unos valores politicos correctos.El discurso dramatico que permite que estos dramaturgos, sin riesgo de censura, se hagan portavoces del sentir de un coro de voces, dialogando con otros generos (tratados politicos, emblematica, poesia tradicional, etc. ), reflexionando sobre la personalidad del principe ideal y sobre el arte de gobernar, llega a veces a proponer la urgente necesidad de una reforma en la conducta del imperio. ANTONIO CARRENO-RODRGUEZ es profesor asistente de espanol, George Mason University.

Review :
[Provides] a comprehensive and thoroughly researched contribution to the study of politics, ideology and theater. [...] while scholars of early modern theater will welcome this thoughtful study, critics and historians interested in seventeenth-century political discourse will also benefit from Carreño-Rodríguez's extensive attention to how theater responded to its own sociopolitical contexts. A splendid study of Spain's professional theater in the imperial crisis experienced in the peninsula between 1598 and 1659. [...] This book is mandatory reading for those interested in these two areas of cultural production in early modern Spain.
