A critical edition of the original version of Calderón’s masterpiece, based on the text contained in the Zaragoza Parte (1636). Now republished for the first time since the seventeenth century, the "Zaragoza" version is preceded by a lengthy introductory study in which Ruano offers important evidence and new deductions convincingly to establish that Calderón wrote two versions of La vida es sueño (Life’s a Dream): a first version – the "Zaragoza" play, written probably before 1630 and primarily for performance – and a revised version (1635) for publication in the "Primera parte" of his plays (Madrid, 1636). Also included are comprehensive textual notes and an exhaustive comparison of the two versions, with full lists of their variants. This study and edition will radically alter traditional views of the play’s textual history and chronology. This book is in Spanish.
