«La vida es sueño» is the play by Pedro Calderón de la Barca, published by Austral in paperback (248 pages, in Spanish).
Prince Segismundo, imprisoned since birth because of a prophecy foretelling a cruel reign, becomes the center of a plot that questions the boundary between dream and wakefulness. Echoing the myth of the cave, the play addresses fate, free will and the possibility of redemption through reason and virtue.
A work from 1635, this title belongs to the Austral Clásica collection and includes a reading guide by Evangelina Rodríguez Cuadros.
Suitable for readers of classical Spanish theater and literature students wishing to delve deeper into the work.
Dramaturgo español del Siglo de Oro, autor de La vida es sueño, El alcalde de Zalamea y numerosos autos sacramentales.
