In this episode, hosts Jess Snellings and RIley Tate apply their analytical muscle to unpacking key themes of gender and honor at work in Life is a Dream. They set the stage with close reading and key historical context of the Spanish Golden Age. Then, they put the play in conversation with an example from contemporary media, Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko’s animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender. In this examination, they focus on resonances of gender and feminist theory in both works. This episode features guest performances from Molly Martinez-Collins as Rosaura and Chris Johnston as Clotaldo. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
