General Notes

Valladares Reguero identifies Mira de Amescua as author.
Morley and Bruerton do not attribute play to Lope de Vega.
Vega García-Luengos identifies Mira de Amescua as author.
Full title El animal profeta, y dichoso parricida, San Julián. Really (?) by Mira de Amescua, the play deals with Julian the Hospitaller (for whom there is no historical evidence); if by Lope, it has been rehashed, say Morley & Bruerton (p. 421). Lope's Peregrino list (1608) includes the title San Julián de Cuenca (who did exist), but the text is lost. (Email communication from D. W. Cruickshank).
