520 $a In general the Elizabethan and Jacobean drama contains a more anthropocentric vision of the World's Stage.
520 $a The similarities and differences in the use of overt theatricality are studied in a group of twenty Spanish and twenty English plays. The dramatization of the theatrum mundi metaphor is the focal point.
520 $a The social and psychological aspects of double role-playing are examined. The abuse of power as a cause of shifting roles is amply illustrated in both Spanish and English drama, but social satire is much stronger on the English stage. English and Spanish plays alike contain excellent examples of demonstrating identity and character problems through double role-playing. The Spanish playwrights examined in more detail the emotional and sensuous undertones of counterfeiting by women. More English plays contain a study of the social context of double role-playing, with the middle class, absent from the Spanish stage, occupying an important position. Spanish playwrights tend to view the psychological aspects of double role-playing from a philosophical perspective.
520 $a Lope de Vega's Lo fingido verdadero is the most complete example of how overt theatricality and the theatrum mundi metaphor function in the Spanish drama: a comprehensive presentation of the metaphor's secular and non-secular aspects crowned by a religious interpretation of life as a divine comedy directed by God, El Autor.
520 $a The theatrum mundi metaphor, expanded by fusion with the theater-dream topos, constitutes the dramatic structure of Calderon's La vida es sueno and En esta vida todo es verdad y todo mentira, and of Shakespeare's The Tempest and A Midsummer Night's Dream. The double and illusory nature of life is expressed by using devices such as the internal playwright, double role-playing, the play-within-the-play, and the staged dream.
520 $a For Calderon, the moral dimension is dominant and the interpretation of the theatrum mundi metaphor, as for most Spanish playwrights, stresses a theocentric concept of human life epitomized in his El Gran Teatro del Mundo. For Shakespeare the esthetic dimension prevails because mostly the creative imagination's metaphysical perspective is explored.
