Glosas críticas a El horno de Constantinopla, auto sacramental de Andrés de Claramonte
摘要
In this essay I offer some new comments on El horno de Constantinopla, a play by Andrés de Claramonte that has scarcely received any critical attention. This dramatic text has aspects of undoubted interest that I highlight: epithalamic songs that presage fateful events in the plot; a brief paraphrase of the Cantar de los Cantares used to express the loves of Rubén and Acenid; a free restructuring of chapter 3 of the Book of Daniel; the painting of the Hebrew people as stateless based on a connection between the exodus from Babylon and the expulsion of the Jews in 1492; the possible resemanticisation of Constantinople as the City of God and the presence of paradigmatic elements of Lope de Vega's autos sacramentales.
