Calderon in the German Lands and the Low Countries : His Reception and Influence, 1654-1980 Hardback
by Henry W. Sullivan
Part of the Cambridge Iberian and Latin American Studies series
Hardback
Description
This book recounts the afterlife of the great Golden Age dramatist Pedro Calderon de la Barca in Dutch and German-speaking Europe.
The high quality of the German critical and philosophical tradition has led to a far greater appreciation of Calderon outside than inside his native Spain, and it is in the German territories that the playwright's influence has been most remarkable and widespread.
Professor Sullivan documents and analyses Calderon's reception and influence on the stage and on playwriting, criticism, philosophy and music in these territories.
In addressing his book to students of both the German and the Spanish traditions Professor Sullivan has supplied the necessary background to both cultures and has rendered all quotations into English.
The range of material will also make the book important for students of philosophy, comparative drama and German opera.
