Juan Maldonado's 'Hispaniola'

Juan Maldonados earliest work, Hispaniola, The Spanish Woman, is a five-act comedy. This edition of the play has Latin and English on facing pages, and with an introduction, 491 footnotes to both Latin and English texts, and 74 endnotes. A Plautine comedy of adolescent sexual desire, deceptive identity, & tricky servants, it merits a place among Reformation texts on Christian issues, defending the younger generations right freely to choose a marriage partner in defiance of arranged matches.
