| Summary | "Teatro selecto, tomo 1 de 4" by Pedro Calderón de la Barca is a collection of select plays written in the late 17th century. This work features a range of Calderón's renowned dramas, including "La vida es sueño," "El mágico prodigioso," and "El príncipe constante," reflecting themes of philosophy, religion, and human experience. The collection showcases Calderón's significant contributions to Spanish literature, particularly in the context of the Golden Age theatrical tradition. The opening of this anthology presents an extensive transcription notice and a critical study that pays homage to Calderón's legacy. It discusses his impact on Spanish theater and the necessity for a renewed effort to engage with his works, given the historical indifference towards them despite their esteemed status. The critic emphasizes Calderón's unique style and thematic depth, setting the tone for exploring the playwright's complex characters and intricate plots across various genres, including religious and philosophical dramas. The early text serves both as an introduction to Calderón's profound influence on the literary world and as an invitation for readers to appreciate the richness of his theatrical contributions.
