«La comedia nueva. El sí de las niñas» is the Neoclassical theatre volume by Leandro Fernández de Moratín, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together two comedies by the Spanish Enlightenment author. «La comedia nueva» satirises the excesses of Baroque theatre and defends a stage with greater moral and aesthetic stature. «El sí de las niñas» addresses arranged marriages and the rigid education of young women, and demands for women the freedom to choose a husband in the face of social hypocrisy.
Edition prepared by Manuel Fernández Nieto, with introduction and explanatory notes. Part of the El Libro De Bolsillo - Literatura collection (volume 5026).
For students of eighteenth-century Spanish literature and readers interested in Neoclassical theatre and the history of feminism.
