Her masterpiece of comic theatre, &ltI>Los empenos de una casa receives its first English translation in this edition. &ltI>The House of Trials, a romantic comedy of intrigue, mixes lyrical poetry, low puns, songs, sword fights, cross-dressing, and mistaken identities. In addition to the award-winning translation, the book contains essays discussing Sor Juana's life, the original production of the play, the unique use of asides, and various feminist interpretations of the &ltI>House of Trials."
