«Pasos» is a collection of short theatre pieces by Lope de Rueda, published by Orbis in hardback (199 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together ten pasos by Lope de Rueda, brief pieces designed to be inserted into the performance of longer works. With direct humour and equivocal situations, they portray the speech and popular customs of the sixteenth century and show the festive vein of Golden Age theatre.
Part of the «Historia de la Literatura Española» collection (no. 52); 1983 edition by Ediciones Orbis.
Work of interest to readers of classical Spanish theatre and the Golden Age.
Lope de Rueda (c.1505<1510–1565) was a Spanish dramatist and author, regarded by some as the best of his era. A versatile writer, he also wrote comedies, farces, and pasos. He was the precursor to what is considered the golden age of Spanish literature.
