Heredera de una rica tradicion literaria, en la que destacan nombres como el de Tirso de Molina, Moliere o Lord Byron, Don Juan Tenorio de Jose Zorrilla es una de las versiones mas populares de esta mitica figura, caracterizado como un personaje satanico redimido por el amor.
De ello resulta una obra de teatro de sorprendentes recursos dramaticos, que se ha convertido en una de las mas representadas en los escenarios espanoles de todos los tiempos.
La presente edicion esta a cargo de Ismael Lopez Martin, profesor en el departamento de didactica de las lenguas y de las ciencias humanas y sociales de la Universidad de Zaragoza y especialista en teatro espanol.
Su estudio introductorio y el aparato de notas que ha disenado constituyen una aportacion fundamental que nos acerca aun mas al mito de Don Juan.
English DescriptionWhen Jos Zorrilla completed Don Juan Tenorio in 1844 little did he know that he had just written what would become the most popular Spanish play of all time. While the opening performance was a modest one, Zorrilla's interpretation of the legendary Don Juan myth was so well-liked by the public that, in a very short time, its success was overwhelming. Shortly after, Don Juan Tenorio became not only the most popular play in Spain, but in the entire Spanish-speaking world, and to this day it is considered the chief representative of Spanish Romantic theater.
