• Don Juan


This attractive Web site explores the trajectory across Europe of the 17th century literary figure, Don Juan. The story of this unrepentant seducer and agent provocateur originated in Spain in 1630 and was then rewritten by different playwrights across Europe, with each version manifesting the cultural aspects of the playwright's nationality. This site traces the development of Don Juan from Golden Age Spain, to Baroque Italy, to classical France of Louis XIV, to England at the time of the Restoration of the monarchy.Each country is first explored in terms of political situation, religion and theatre to provide a frame of reference for the work (the user should note that there are some factual errors regarding dates). Then, the various versions of Don Juan (such as Tirso de Molina's 'El burlador de Sevilla' or 'Il convitato di pietra' from Italy) are explored in more detail, demonstrating how the recurrent themes (the condition of women, humour, honour, medicine, licentiousness, blasphemy) reveal the characteristic traits of the society of each country. While the site is divided into sections related to each country, points of commonality between countries are highlighted and the user may cross-reference by following colour-coded links. Synopses of the different versions of Don Juan are available, together with biographies of their authors. The full-text of some of these versions ('Dom Juan' by Molière and 'The Libertine' by Thomas Shadwell, for example) are available on the site as zipped files.Illustrated throughout, this Web resource will be of great interest to students and researchers of the story of Don Juan.

The site also contains a number of useful resources, such as full articles on the text that have appeared in the Spanish press and journals, together with information about and extracts from recent publications in the field.

• Lazarillo de Tormes

Links to complementary resources are also provided and comprise: Juan Ramón de Arana's pages on Lazarillo, which summarize the characteristics of the picaresque and the pícaro, allow students to text their knowledge of the text online, and explore the supposed anonymity of the text's author; a site offering a brief textual analysis; historical information about Salamanca's Roman bridge (which spans the River Tormes); and a study guide to Lazarillo prepared by the gateway's compiler, Harry Vélez Quiñones, which offers introductory notes and comprehension questions for each section.
