In this study, Raymond MacCurdy lends his considerable expertise in Golden Age tragedy to the occidental universal of the 'tragic fall' of a beloved figure. The first half of the volume centers the figure of the fallen favorite in Golden Age Spain, encompassing the work of playwrights of vastly varied renown, and framing figures, such as Alvaro de Luna, in their social, political, and cultural milieus.
