Simbología del poder en <i>Lo que le toca al valor y príncipe de Orange</i>, de Antonio Mira de Amescua

In <i>Lo que le toca al valor y príncipe de Orange, Antonio Mira de Amescua dramatizes the murder of William of Orange</i>, in the first phase of the Eighty Years’ War. In order to justify the tyrannicide, Mira first convincingly presents the voice of the enemies of Catholicism and Spain, but manages to dominate that voice by piling up negative imagery on those enemies, who the play presents through compelling imagery as the incarnation of corrupt power, as a world upside down that the tyrannice will destroy. In addition, Mira associates this imagery of public policy to private debauchery, thereby linking the two actions of the play.
