What kind of dramatic work does Semele and Arabella have in common?
Arabella Arabella, Op. 79, is a lyric comedy or opera in three acts by Richard Strauss to a German libretto by Hugo von Hofmannsthal, their sixth and last operatic collaboration.
The Spanish Gypsy The Spanish Gypsy is an English Jacobean tragicomedy, dating from 1621-22. The play was likely a collaboration between several dramatists, including Thomas Middleton, William Rowley, Thomas Dekker, and John Ford. Like Shakespeare's lost play "Cardenio", "The Spanish Gypsy" is an English reworking of the novellas of Miguel de Cervantes, combining two of Cervantes' "Novelas Ejemplares" into a single drama.
