Born in Madrid in 1600, he studied at the Jesuit <em>Colegio Imperial<\/em> in the same city, and in 1614 he went to Alcal\u00e1 de Henares, where he completed his studies. His consecration as a playwright came when the Dukes of Alba became his patrons. In old age, Calder\u00f3n decided to receive priestly orders, becoming Philip IV&#8217;s honourary chaplain. His theatrical works are enthralling and of great literary quality and also convey a strong ideological content. Among them, there is <em>La vida es sue\u00f1o<\/em>, a philosophical drama written in 1636, and his famous and numerous <em>Autos sacramentales<\/em>.
