Summary "Teatro selecto, tomo 4 de 4" by Pedro Calderón de la Barca is a collection of plays likely written in the early 17th century. This volume includes various comedies, zarzuelas, and autos sacramentales, showcasing Calderón's talent for weaving themes of love, honor, and fate. Through the interplay of characters, the work navigates the complexities of human emotions and societal expectations, particularly focusing on relationships and moral dilemmas. The opening of this volume introduces characters such as Don Cárlos, who is deeply enmeshed in romantic and familial conflicts involving Leonor and their respective families. The dialogue reveals their struggles with love, trust, and misunderstandings, as well as the societal pressures that shape their decisions. Don Cárlos's attempts to navigate his feelings for Leonor, amidst accusations and shrouded identities, set the stage for the unfolding drama centered on honor and emotional turmoil, highlighting Calderón's exploration of the heart's frailties in the face of destiny.
