«Las cuatro comedias» is the collection of four plays by Lope de Rueda, published by Cátedra in paperback (275 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together Eufemia, Armelina, Los engañados and Medora, four comedies with which Lope de Rueda connects the early Castilian farces and the dramatic practice of later Spanish theater. The edition, prepared by Alfredo Hermenegildo, provides a critical study and notes to place the works in their historical and literary context.
The work belongs to the Letras Hispánicas series; it was originally published in 1985 and this edition is from 2001.
Intended for literature students and readers of classical Spanish theater: the edition offers notes and a study to contextualize these comedies.
Lope de Rueda (c.1505<1510–1565) was a Spanish dramatist and author, regarded by some as the best of his era. A versatile writer, he also wrote comedies, farces, and pasos. He was the precursor to what is considered the golden age of Spanish literature.
