The bringing of Spanish 17th century verse plays to the English-speaking stage involves a number of fundamental questions. Are verse translations preferable to prose, and if so, what kind of verse? To what degree should translations aim to be ""faithful""? Which kinds of plays ""work"", and which do not? This volume explores these questions.
