First edition. Following the success of his 1825 anthology, Colmena Española, Harvard instructor Francisco Sales produced the present compendium of three important Spanish Golden Age plays for use in prep schools and universities in the United States. The three works are Pedro Calderon de la Barca's "El Principe Constante"; Lope de Vega's "Le Estrella de Sevilla"; and Agustin Moreto's "El Desden con el Desden." Several editions followed over the next few decades.
