Synopsis "Fuente Ovejuna (in Spanish)"

Una de las obras clave de la historia de la literatura española en edición educativa.Fuente Ovejuna es una de las obras dramáticas más conocidas y representadas de Lope de Vega. La comedia plantea como un pueblo sometido puede alzarse contra la tiranía de los que no ejercen correctamente su poder; y, de este modo, conseguir restablecer la armonía social defendiendo, en consonancia con el pensamiento político del siglo XVII, la autoridad incuestionable del Rey. En la obra, se resalta la figura del villano honrado y digno capaz de elevados sentimientos frente al noble lascivo y ambicioso. El célebre autor recreó magistralmente el ambiente rústico para representar un estilo de vida virtuoso y ejemplar que no tenía nada que envidiar a los hábitos cortesanos.
La presente edición ofrece al estudiante un acercamiento accesible, sugestivo y, a la vez, riguroso a una de las obras más reconocidas del gran dramaturgo barroco Lope de Vega. El estudio introductorio, los textos complementarios, el glosario y, sobre todo, las diversas y variadas actividades desean guiar la lectura de una obra fundamental para el conocimiento y la comprensión del gran teatro áureo.

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.
