Review Quotes: Companion to Calderón de la Barca is the first "general guide to the interested reader" [...] not only students and scholars of early modern Spanish literature and early modernists in other fields but also comparatists and people interested in theory history and theatre more broadly. Companion to Calderón de la Barca is a splendid contribution not just to one but to several fields, one that sets high academic standards for future handbooks, and one that will undoubtedly serve as a vade mecum for the next generation of Calderonistas.--Sofie Kluge "Bulletin of the Comediantes"
