«La dama boba» is a comedy by Félix Lope de Vega, published by Austral in paperback (136 pages, in Spanish).
The play presents two sisters: Finea, slow-witted, and Nise, cultured and perceptive. The romantic entanglements and comic situations allow Lope de Vega to develop the Neoplatonic idea of love as a force that educates and transforms people, with a mocking portrait of the social conventions of his time.
The play was originally published in 1613. This Austral edition, published in 1999, with an introductory study by Alonso Zamora Vicente, belongs to the Clásica collection, Teatro series, number 1.
For readers of classical Spanish theater and students of Golden Age literature.
Félix Lope de Vega y Carpio was a Spanish playwright, poet, and novelist who was a key figure in the Spanish Golden Age (1492–1659) of Baroque literature. In the literature of Spain, Lope de Vega is often considered second only to Miguel de Cervantes. Cervantes said that Lope de Vega was “The Phoenix of Wits” and “Monster of Nature”.
