«Tablado de marionetas para educación de príncipes» is a play by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Espasa Calpe in paperback (294 pages).
The volume brings together three theatrical farces in which Valle-Inclán distorts traditional values to build a satire of power and the court. The opening piece, inspired by a children's tale, transcends the merely childish, and the whole anticipates the esperpento with expressive language critical of the hypocrisy and cruelty of the era.
It belongs to number 129 of the Austral Collection of Espasa Calpe and features an edition by César Oliva.
For readers of classic Spanish theatre and those interested in the work of Valle-Inclán and the origins of the esperpento.
Spanish playwright, novelist and poet, creator of the 'esperpento' style and author of Bohemian Lights and Tirano Banderas.
