The three plays edited and translated in this volume are strongly
linked to what we now think of as the Portuguese Discoveries. All
three are fundamentally concerned with the expansion of Portugal in
Africa and India through either crusade or commerce. In the
introductions to the plays, the playwright's social role as a court
dramatist is emphasized and his dramatic productions are set firmly
within the political concerns of his time. Careful consideration is
given to the involvement of both Gil Vicente and the Inquisition in
the later emendation of the play's texts.
