Hewing closely to Peter Brook's notion of the bare or empty stage, Esther Fernández and Adrienne L. Martín argue that Cervantes's omnipresent concern with theatricality manifests not only in his drama but also in the myriad metatheatrical instances dispersed throughout his prose works. In doing so, Drawing the Curtain sheds light on the ways in which Cervantes forces his readers to engage with themes that are central to his life and works, including love, freedom, truth, confinement, and otherness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEsther Fernández\u003c\/b\u003e is an associate professor in the Department of Modern and Classical Literatures and Cultures at Rice University. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAdrienne L.
