One of the great playwrights of the Spanish Golden Age, he was the
author of "El Burlador de Sevilla" (translated variously as "The
Trickster of Seville", "The Prankster of Seville", or "The Playboy of
Seville"). This was the first great stage play to immortalize the
legend of Don Juan, and was used by Mozart as the basis for his opera
"Don Giovanni".
