Peter Lang Publishing Inc (Verlag)
978-1-63667-669-2 (ISBN)
This book presents an annotated edition, English translation, and an in-depth study of Lope de Vega’s La prueba de los ingenios. Through this translation, the authors aim to make this significant yet lesser-known work accessible to a wider audience, while providing scholarly insights into its historical, cultural, and literary contexts. The book's introduction explores themes of genre and gender hybridity, and socio-cultural self-fashioning, showcasing Lope's nuanced response to societal norms and his creative engagement with contemporary debates on authorship, professional theater, and gender issues. The annotations offer valuable commentary, guiding readers through the complex layers of Lope’s text and underscoring its relevance to both early modern and contemporary discussions on gender, sexuality, and social identity.
