This is a close reading of a play by Felix Lope de Vega (1562-1635)--a Spanish playwright, poet, and major figure of Spanish Baroque literature--titled El caballero de Olmedo. The study analyzes the comedia in terms of the literary and social conventions that it reflects: cortesía, brujería, and alcahuetería.
