About this book
In the early 16th century, Portugal grappled with the complexities of social customs and the rising cost of living, particularly evident in the taverns of Lisbon. "Pranto de Maria Parda" by Gil Vicente offers a sharp satirical lens on these societal challenges, highlighting the struggles of the common folk as they navigate a world where wine is a luxury and camaraderie is scarce. This play intricately weaves together themes of alcohol consumption and social disparity, making it a vital document for understanding the era's cultural landscape. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this work invites readers to reflect on the intersection of economy and community in a time of change. Discover the poignant truths within this classic Portuguese drama.
