Synopsis "El Acero de Madrid (in Spanish)"

Sin lugar a dudas, " El acero de Madrid " pone sobre la mesa todos los arquetipos asociados a la comedia urbana. Un paradigma ejemplar que reuniría las cuatro características principales que se les presupone a estas obras: paisaje metropolitano, temática amorosa, contemporaneidad y un más que probable final feliz. " El acero de Madrid " establece como coordenadas de su acción dramática el tópico de la falsa opilada. Una tradición de nuevo cuño que no presentaba antecedentes clásicos, pero que estaba lejos de ser una innovación lopesca. Siendo justos, en realidad el Fénix se estaría sumando a una tendencia en boga que ponía el dedo en la llaga de un problema social. A lo largo de la obra se nos recuerda una y otra vez que la supuesta opilación de Belisa se erige como el verdadero motor de la trama, causa y respuesta a sus apuros sentimentales. A modo de parapeto poético, detrás de aquella invención habría una larga retahíla de poemas que se burlaban de aquellas doncellas que, fingiéndose enfermas, aprovechaban para perder algo más que la vergüenza.

FÉLIX LOPE DE VEGA CARPIO (Madrid, 1562 – 1635) Spanish playwright and poet, revolutionized the dramatic genre in the Golden Age. From a young age, Lope de Vega showed a precocious talent for writing, composing comedies and translating from Latin at an early age. His life was intense and often controversial, alternating periods of literary success with episodes of love affairs, duels, and exiles. He worked as a secretary for nobles, participated in the Spanish Armada, and, after a deep personal crisis, became a priest in 1614, never abandoning his literary work

In 1577, he entered the University of Alcalá and later served various powerful men. Becoming a famous author and a respectable family man after breaking up with his lover, Lope received two harsh blows in just one year: the deaths of his son and his wife in 1612 and 1613, plunging him into a deep crisis that led him to take holy orders. He even officiated mass. From this period are works like La dama boba, El perro del hortelano, and Fuenteovejuna. Both in quantity and quality, his work is vast, especially his theater, a genre in which the volume of his production is hardly quantifiable, even by experts.
