This collection of original new essays focuses on the many ways in
which early modern Spanish plays engaged their audiences in a
dialogue about abuse, injustice, and inequality. Far from the
traditional monolithic view of theatrical works as tools for
expanding ideology, these essays each recognize the power of
theatre in reflecting on issues related to social justice. The
first section of the book focuses on textual analysis, taking into
account legal, feminist, and collective bargaining theory. The
second section explores issues surrounding theatricality,
performativity, and intellectual property laws through an analysis
of contemporary adaptations. The final section reflects on social
justice from the practitioners' point of view, including actors and
directors. Social Justice in Spanish Golden Age Theatre reveals how
adaptations of classical theatre portray social justice and how
throughout history the writing and staging of comedias has been at
the service of a wide range of political agendas.
