Sommario/riassunto |
|
José María Rodríguez Méndez is a noted playwright, an acerbic cultural critic, and a political dissident under Franco. In Performing Spanishness, the first English-language examination of Méndez's life and work, Michael Thompson sets the playwright's lifelong struggle against censorship in the context of Spain's shifting national identity. |
