  1. It is with a heavy heart that I make public the passing of my colleague #DonaldRLarson (Emeritus Faculty at The Ohio State University), a recognized specialist in the #theater of #EarlyModernSpain. During recent days, he contracted flu and pneumonia. Last week he was taken to the ER at a hospital in Cincinnati. Despite ongoing treatments to help him breathe, our dear colleague slipped away Tuesday night, December 6, 2022. I choose to remember Don the way we knew him in Columbus, as an upstanding colleague and one of the truly good human beings it's been my honor to know. He was the author of The Honor Plays of Lope de Vega (Harvard University Press) and a long list of articles on the #Comedia and on the #Zarzuela. He was also an excellent translator of Spanish plays.
