Don Pedro Calderon de la Barca (1600-81) is Spain's most important
early modern dramatist. His varied career as a playwright,
courtier, soldier and priest placed him at the heart of Spanish
culture, and he reflected on contemporary events in his plays, most
famously La vida es sueno (Life is a Dream). In this scholarly
biography of Calderon in English, Don Cruickshank uses his command
of the archival sources and his unparalleled understanding of
Calderon's work to chart his life and his political, literary and
religious contexts. In addition, the book includes much fresh
research into Calderon's writings and their attributions. This
elegant, erudite work will bring Calderon to a new audience both
within and beyond Spanish studies. With illustrations, extensive
notes and a detailed index, this is the most comprehensive
English-language book on Calderon, and it will long remain the key
work of reference on this important author.
