Égloga de Fileno, Zambardo y Cardonio (Égloga 12) (1496-1509), Juan del Encina

Scene

It is a short, one-act play of 726 lines

Staging

It is set in the poetic ‘Arcadia’ of versifying shepherds. It could be done with minimal or no set, and the only truly necessary prop is a dagger or weapon with which Fileno kills himself.
