Courage to Right a Woman's Wrongs: Don Juan Demystified

In this episode, we explore Spanish Golden Age gem, The Courage to Right a Woman's Wrongs by Ana Caro. Our expert hosts Becca Westbrook and Megan Parlett hone in on the history and context of the Don Juan trope in literature and drama and then apply this understanding to an investigation into gender, honor, and disguise in Caro's extraordinary play. How can queer theory help illuminate the resonance of Caro's play for audiences today? This episode features special guest Tommy Hegarty, with music and audio editing by Westbrook. Hosted on Acast.
