Auto da Índia is a play by the Portuguese playwright Gil Vicente, considered one of the fathers of Portuguese and Spanish theater. The play, published on May 27, 2018 by Porto Editora, is a classic piece of Portuguese literature.
Gil Vicente, called the Trobadour, was a Portuguese playwright and poet who acted in and directed his own plays. Considered the chief dramatist of Portugal he is sometimes called the "Portuguese Plautus," often referred to as the "Father of Portuguese drama" and as one of Western literature's greatest playwrights. Also noted as a lyric poet, Vicente worked in Spanish as much as he worked in Portuguese and is thus, with Juan del Encina, considered joint-father of Spanish drama.
