| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study is to overcome these deficiencies. To bring a thematic and generically disparate collection of plays together for an overview requires finding important points which all, or at least most of the plays share. I have found, as a result of my careful reading of all of Sor Juana's drama, at least six constants which apply to a significant portion of the Sorjuanian drama. They are the following: Calderon-like dramatic art and theory; Greco-Latin mythology; the echo/echo-device; The Ad Spectatores technique; the loa, especially as an independent genre; and literary eclecticism. A consideration of these points will produce an understanding and appreciation of a major part of the literature of Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, her literary Terra Incognita, the drama. | |
