El Burlador De Sevilla

Publisher Marketing: Edicion de Francisco Florit Duran, catedratico de Literatura Espanola de la Universidad de MurciaEl burlador de Sevilla significa la irrupcion en la literatura de uno de sus grandes mitos, el de don Juan, el aristocrata amoral y cinico que seduce mujeres por el mero hecho de conquistarlas. De todas las versiones, la de Tirso es la mas despiadada: ostenta que el mayor -gusto que en mi puede haber / es burlar a una mujer / y dejarla sin honor-, con lo que a la ofensa une la crueldad, el desprecio de las leyes divinas y humanas e incluso el mofarse de la otra vida. Esta edicion incluye una introduccion que contextualiza la obra, un aparto de notas, una cronologia y una bibliografia esencial, asi como tambien varias propuestas de discusion y debate en torno a la lectura. Esta al cuidado de Francisco Florit Duran, catedratico de literatura espanola en la Universidad de Murcia. English Description Tirso de Molina was, with Lope de Vega and Calderon, one of the great dramatists of 17th century Spain, which produced a theatre as vital rich and as varied as its Elizabethan counterpart. The Trickster of Seville is thoroughly representative of the drama of Spain's Golden Age: a drama of fast-moving action which set its face against classical precepts, broke the unities of time and place, cheerfully mixed the serious and the comic, combined main and sub-plots, and cultivated Spanish subjects and Spanish characters. In this respect Tirso's Don Juan is of course, the most famous character in the drama of the Golden Age, as well as the first of a long line which extends through Mozart and Moliere to the 20th century."
