Über den Autor


Lope de Vega (1562-1635), acknowledged as Spain's most lyrical and energetic dramatist, was a prolific and complusive writer. He treated an enormous range of subjects, often mingling comedy with tragedy, to the horror of the classicists, and defended his methods in his 'Arte nuevo de hacer comedias en este tiempe', published in 1609.Francisco de Rojas Zorilla was born in Toledo on 4 October 1067, when Lope de Vega was 45 years old and an experienced and successful dramatist. In comparison, Rojas is less well known than Lope, the equivalent perhaps of Webster to de Vega's Shakespeare. The eldest son of a naval officer, Rojas probably received his university education at the prestigious University of Salamanca, after which he returned to Madrid and concentrated on writing for the theatre. By 1632, when he was 25, he had already gained a reputation, particularly as a court dramatist. Even at the beginning of his career he was collaborating with the most successful dramatists of his day, including Calderón, Luis Vélez de Guevara, Pérez de Montalbán, and Antonio Coello. His principal works are Del rey abajo ninguno and No hay padre siendo rey. He died at the age of 41 in 1648, possibly as a result of foul play.Gwynne Edwards has prepared a new free adaptation of the play, from a literal translation by Jennifer Bakst. Gwynne Edwards is a specialist in Spanish theatre and cinema and, until recently, Professor of Spanish at the University of Aberystwyth, Wales. He has also translated and adapted more than forty plays from Spanish, French and Italian, many of which have been staged at major theatres in Britain and the United States. He has published three collections of Lorca's plays with Methuen Drama, and also collections of seventeenth-century Spanish and contemporary Spanish-American plays adapted from the correspondence and prose writings of Dylan Thomas. His books include Lorca: The Theatre Beneath the Sand, Lorca: Living in the Theatre, Dramatists in Perspective: Spanish Theatre in the Twentieth Century, The Discreet Art of Luis Buñuel and Almodóvar: Labyrinths of Passion.
