The story of Jesus going to hell after his crucifixion and removing all the early founders of the church to take to heaven. Lucifer is a bit whiny and wimpy, Jesus is almost a total non-presence. The play is just a few long speeches from Lucifer, a showing of the banner of Jesus, and the knocking over of the gates of hell. Lucifer gives up without a whimper; in fact, there is nothing to indicate Jesus harrowed hell except that he said he did. The scene where Solomon is kicked out of hell is show more also quite underwhelming. This is clearly a play written for believers to allow them to charge up their mission a bit, but it seems we do that better nowadays. Any modern hell house can top this for sheer inventiveness and hellishness. Mostly interesting as a curiosity of past theatre. show less
Excelente instrumento de aproximación a las diferentes tendencias críticas que han pensado la literatura, es una primera entrada para perder el miedo a la teoría sobre el texto literario, los discursos, el ejercicio de la escritura y la lectura en su más alta complejidad. Todo maestrillo pretende ocultar el "manual" en que se ampara, esta enciclopedia es el manual de ingreso para todos los estudiantes universitarios y sobre todo para los que procuran alcanzar estudios graduados. La show more enciclopedia reúne las aproximaciones más contemporáneas y facilita el camino teórico a quienes noo han realizado estudios en filosofía, hermenéutica o epistemología. show less
