La viuda valenciana is a comedy from the Spanish Golden Age written by Lope de Vega. The play, published in 1620, is an example of cloak and dagger comedy, where entanglement and intrigue are the engines of action. The story focuses on Leonarda, a young Valencian widow who, although she pretends to want to keep the memory of her husband, actually longs to be independent. However, a man's gaze is enough to change her intention, and from that encounter, the beautiful widow will try to readjust her purpose to the new situation, satisfying her desire without neglecting appearances. The comedy, full of misunderstandings and comic situations, culminates with Leonarda choosing her husband, a bold ending within the theatrical conventions of the time.
Dramaturgo y poeta español del Siglo de Oro, autor de Fuente Ovejuna, El caballero de Olmedo y El perro del hortelano.
