Ten Spanish Farces of the Sixteenth, Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries is a collection of ten comedic plays written by Spanish playwrights during the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. The book, compiled and translated by George Tyler Northup, features farces that were popular during the Spanish Golden Age, a period of flourishing arts and literature in Spain.The plays included in the collection are: The Jealous Old Man from Extremadura by Tirso de Molina, The Happy Deception by Lope de Vega, The Liar by Juan Ruiz de Alarc������n, The Thief Who Robbed His Master by Luis Qui�����ones de Benavente, The Cornudo Imaginario by Pedro Calder������n de la Barca, The Trickster of Seville by Tirso de Molina, The Grouch by Juan de la Cueva, The Slanderer by Juan del Valle y Caviedes, The Swindler by Francisco de Rojas Zorrilla, and The Widow of Valencia by Agust������n Moreto.The plays are written in Spanish but are translated into English in the book. Each play is preceded by an introduction that provides historical and cultural context, as well as a brief biography of the playwright. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Spanish literature and theatre, as well as anyone interested in the comedic traditions of Spain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
