El Desdeñado Más Firme

El Desdeñado Más Firme

This is the first modern edition and critical study of a dramatic courtly tale from 1655 by a forgotten woman writer of Spain's Golden Age. The extensive introduction and notes serve to restore the work to the literary history of its period and to relate it to contemporary tales by Lope de Vega, María de Zayas, and other masters of fiction after Cervantes. "This edition is of interest to students of Spanish Golden Age literature, women's studies, and cultural studies." -Carmen Chaves Tesser, Hispania.
