You've got to be kidding me. Lope de Vega is more of a feminist than María de Zayas. I'm going to substantially rework this to return this article to some semblance of balance and impartiality. Matthew Stuckwisch (talk) 21:58, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Style issues[edit]

Every single journal article I've read on Zayas (and that's a lot) refers to her in English as simply "Zayas". Therefore, for all future writers, please avoid the very akward sounding "De Zayas". Also, shouldn't we be actually translating the titles? I understand that the primary English translation (actually, the only full one that I'm aware of) is Boyer's, but unless we specify that, I think as editors we should provide a literal translation, and then perhaps add a footnote or simply point out in the bibliography that the English edition was given a different title.Matthew Stuckwisch (talk) 21:58, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
