«El desdén, con el desdén» is the comedy by Agustín Moreto, published by Crítica in hardcover (213 pages, in Spanish).
In a courtly context, a lady treats a suitor coldly, and he responds by imitating her indifference. The standoff between them generates entanglements, retorts and misunderstandings, with Polilla as comic counterpoint and sensible voice.
Critical edition within the Biblioteca Clásica (volume 77), with prologue and notes by Enrico di Pastena and preliminary study by John E. Varey. Published in Barcelona in 1999.
Suitable both for recreational reading and for academic study of Spanish Golden Age theatre, thanks to its annotation and critical apparatus.
