«La dama del alba» is the play by Alejandro Casona, published by Ediciones Cátedra in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
«La dama del alba», premiered in 1944, is a poetic drama considered one of Alejandro Casona's most characteristic works: it fuses Asturian legend and telluric mythology to develop the universal theme of death, with a lyrical atmosphere that permeates the entire text.
The Cátedra edition belongs to the Letras Hispánicas collection (no. 202), includes bibliographical references (pp. 51-56) and corresponds to the 23rd edition, edited by José R. Rodríguez Richart.
This Cátedra edition is aimed at students of Spanish literature and readers interested in the poetic theater of the Generation of '27.
Alejandro Rodríguez Álvarez, known as Alejandro Casona was a Spanish poet and playwright born in Besullo, Spain, a member of the Generation of '27. Casona received his bachelor's degree in Gijon and later studied at the University of Murcia. After Franco's rise in 1936, he was forced, like many Spanish intellectuals, to leave Spain. He lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina until April 1962, when he definitively returned to Spain.
