Don Juan Tenorio is a young nobleman who seduces women of different stations and uses deceit to flout social and religious norms. The play turns his challenges into a reflection on the fate of the soul and closes with a supernatural denouement.
The 1961 edition brings together «El burlador de Sevilla» with «El vergonzoso en palacio» and «Marta la piadosa».
For readers of classic Spanish theatre and students of Golden Age literature.
