Foreshadowing in Lope de Vega's Theatre - Sonia Jones - Bog

This is a highly readable book that discusses about three dozen plays by Lope de Vega, the most successful playwright of the Spanish Golden Age. Based on research carried out at the University of California at Berkeley under the mentorship of Jose F. Montesinos, and completed at Harvard as a Ph.D. dissertation under the direction of Stephen Gilman, the book discusses Lope's use of the technique of foreshadowing to create suspense and dramatic irony in his plays.
