«Fuente Ovejuna» is the Spanish Golden Age play by Lope de Vega, published by Planeta Pub Corp in paperback (180 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place in 1476 in the Cordoban village of Fuente Ovejuna, whose inhabitants rebel against the abuses of their lord, the grand commander of the Order of Calatrava. The conflict shapes an argument about tyranny and popular justice, also read as a defence of the monarchy and the common people.
It belongs to the Austral Collection (no. 359), edited by Rinaldo Froldi with an appendix by Abraham Madroñal. The original work was published in 1619.
Aimed at students and general readers, this edition with introduction and appendix makes it easier to approach this classic of Spanish theatre.
Spanish playwright and poet of the Golden Age, author of Fuente Ovejuna, The Knight from Olmedo and The Dog in the Manger.
