Fuente Ovejuna by Lope de Vega

"Fuente Ovejuna" by Lope de Vega is a play written between 1612-1614. Based on actual historical events, the drama unfolds in a Spanish village during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs. When a powerful commander's tyranny escalates to brutal violence against the townspeople, the entire community rises in unified rebellion. Their collective defiance and unwavering solidarity lead to a confrontation with royal justice, testing whether their desperate act will be condemned or vindicated by the Crown.
