Instituto De Estudios Peruanos, Lima

The Instituto de Estudios Peruanos is an independent, nonprofit organization devoted to social science research. It was founded in 1964 by a group of Peruvian scholars interested in the interdisciplinary study of Peru and its developmental problems. The Institute was officially recognized by the government, through the Ministry of Education, in Ministerial Resolution 2041 of May 1964. The staff consists of five senior researchers and nine associate researchers who share similar institutional goals and a common ideological perspective aimed at reformulating traditional ideas and interpretations of Peruvian reality in order to depict and analyze more accurately the country's economic, political, social, and cultural processes.

Worker's Compensation Coverage for the Self-Employed: The Israeli Experience

self-employed typically are excluded from workers' compensation coverage because of alleged high administrative costs and fear that they will claim benefits for non-work accidents. Israel has covered the selfemployed for more than 20 years; its experience, therefore, is useful assessing these two allegations. Israel's administrative cost for the selfemployed is much higher than that for wage and salary workers. While little support exists for the view that the self-employed claim benefits for non-work accidents, the number of work days lost per accident by the selfemployed is much higher than that for wage and salary workers. Virtually all countries have some system of compensation for work-connected injuries and occupational illness. These programs cover wage and salary workers, and typically exclude the self-employed. In this 1973 study of social security programs ten major developed countries, Kaim-Caudle concluded: The self-employed benefited only rarely from protection against workconnected injuries. only countries which provided schemes for certain of the self-employed were Austria, Germany, and Denmark and even there the conditions and terms were less favorable than those applying to [1, p. 100]. According to the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare's 1977 survey of Social Security Programs Throughout the World, about a fourth of the 129 countries with workers' compensation statutes provide some kind of coverage for the self-employed [5, pp. xviii-xix]. self-employed are not covered because of (a) alleged high administrative costs and (b) the danger of abuse. According to Kaim-Caudle, in any scheme restricted to industrial accidents, it is fairly easy for the self-employed to claim benefit for accidents which are not work-connected. quantitative importance of this can easily be exaggerated, but the fear of abuse is Joseph Krislov is Professor of Economics at the University of Kentucky.

Israel has covered its self-employed from 1957 [2, pp. 252-2541, and that country's experiences should be helpful deciding whether the two objections are Specifically this paper seeks to determine (1) the extent of abuse by the selfemployed and (2) the administrative cost providing coverage. If the objections to coverage are valid, then some estimates of the increased costs would emerge. Presumably, other countries contemplating coverage of the selfemployed would incur similar costs and then would be a position to make a political decision whether to incur these additional costs. Some interest has been expressed the United States workers' compensation for the self-employed. 1972 National Commission of State Workmen's Compensation Laws pointed out that workers' compensation originated by covering employees only, and that coverage has not been extended beyond this group. Commission concluded, however, that we are not convinced that the practice of confining workmen's compensation to employees remains valid. It specifically recommended that coverage be made available, on an optional basis, for the self-employed [6, p. 48]. Optional coverage for some self-employed was available some jurisdictions even before 1972, but only a few individuals apparently elected such coverage. Administrative Costs At the authors' request, the Israel National Insurance Institute prepared some special tabulations allocating the administrative costs for the fiscal years 1974, 1975, and 1976. agency's administrative cost data for fiscal 1977 are not strictly comparable with those for previous years, and therefore that year was not included the analysis. Table 1 indicates that total administrative costs as a percentage of premium income for the self-employed and the wage and salary worker have fluctu-

Two Plays from One Source: La Fianza Satisfecha and El Martir de Madrid

TWO PLAYS FROM ONE SOURCE: LA FIANZA SATISFECHA AND EL MÁRTIR DE MADRID Vern G. Williamsen, University of Missouri and Henry A. Linares, Northern State College As studies of Mira de Amescua's theater have become available in recent years, some interesting facts and relationships have come to light. One of these is the obvious kinship existing between Lope de Vega's La fianza satisfecha and Mira's El mártir de Madrid. Lope's play has been the subject of a series of studies and editions; Mira's work, like much else in his theater, remains essentially unknown.1 Because no one has reported the identical nature of the material from which these two plays were built, the search for the source of Lope's comedia continues to bear uncertain fruit even after Mira's source has been successfully identified by José María Bella. The undeniable relationship of the two plays might well tempt one to write about "influences " if only the order of composition for the plays could be more precisely determined.2 Of even more interest, however, is a study of the quite different literary effects achieved by the two poets as they brought the same story to the stage. I. The Rehtionship of the Phys to Their Sources Both plays tell of a young man who turns violently on his family, leaves home, and fights with a band of raiding Moorish pirates. He then decides to renege, committing the gravest of his many sins, denying Christ. He serves the Moorish king, even to the point of imprisoning his own family when he is followed to Morocco by his father. He is courted by a beautiful Moorish princess but refuses her enticements preferring the illicit charms of his own sister (sister-in-law). He attempts to escape, is recaptured, and undergoes a sudden re-conversion. The King orders him put to death. He delivers a moving oration and call to repent, and dies as a Christian martyr. The other Christians ask for and receive his body so that it may be given proper burial. Quite obviously, both La fianza satisfecha and El mártir de Madrid belong to that remarkable genre, the saintlybandit plays that were so popular, as pointed out by Alexander A. Parker, during the first third of the Seventeenth Century.3 As William Whitby and Robert Anderson have indicated in their edition of La fianza (pp. 59-64), these plays have a peculiar fascination for the present age as well. The editors find literary precedents, if not true sources, for La fianza in such works as Mira's El esclavo del demonio (as an early saintly-bandit comedia), Tirso's El condenado por desconfiado (comparing Leonido's bragging speech with that of Tirso's Enrico ) , and a descendant , if not a precedent, in Calderón's La devoción de la Cruz (for the completely evil nature of the protagonist). Except that we now know Mira's play to deal with the story of a contemporary martyr, we might still be searching among such literary materials for the source from which it, and possibly La fianza as well, grew. J. M. Bella has shown that the ultimate source for Mira's play is found in 81 the story of the "Martirio de Pedro, natural de Madrid en Marruecos," an event that took place in the year 1580. Bella reports Mira's source to have been the Segunda parte de la Historia general del Mundo, de XI años del tiempo del señor Rey don Felipe II el Prudente, desde el año MDLXXV hasta el de MDLXXXV by Antonio de Herrera Tordesillas (Madrid: Pedro Madrigal , 1601, pp. 280-81). Herreras work, however, could not have been the source consulted by Mira because he includes, in his rendering of the story, factual elements not contained in Herrera 's history. Data missing from that account are found, for example in the Anales de Madrid desde el año de 447 al de 1658 of Antonio de León Pinelo (ed. Pedro Fernández, Martín, Madrid: Instituto de Estudios Madrileños, 1951, pp. 125-26). Among these details are: ( 1 ) The month of...

Bibliography of Publications on the Comedia

result may be consistent or it may be inconsistent with Calderón's own archetypal framework. Honig's explorations, especially with La devoción, are too often inconsistent therewith, and his reader should be on his guard, unless he too already dismisses as an inadequate critical tool the discipline of textual interpretation, without which no term can be set to the subjectivism and arbitrariness of the critics. Several errors or sHps have been noted, of which the most important are these. It is several times repeated that Eusebio's body is carried off with JuHa to heaven by the Cross. Actually it remains on the stage; in any case it is not to heaven that Julia is carried, but back to the convent. That Eusebio and Julia should be saved together appears to be necessary for the allegoricomythical interpretation. Is it consequently a case of needing to read into the text what is not there? On p. 182 the extraordinary statement is attributed to me that the allegories of all the late autos are untheological, this being a statement that I made exclusively of Los alimentos del Hombre, an auto so exceptional in this respect that it needs a special explanation. The quotation from La vida on p. 166 does not have the customary clarity of Honig's very fine translations; in Hne 237 "Hfe" renders the "muerte" of the original (given on p. 257). Muerte is the reading of P and VT; this was unnecessarily emended to vida by Krenkel ; Honig has used two different texts. "EDITOR'S NOTE: Although a review appears elsewhere in these pages, it seemed appropriate to offer A. A. Parker space in which to give his opinion of the book, particularly so in view of the reservations expressed by Edwin Honig concerning the British School's approach to criticism. Prof. Parker was kind enough to prepare this note at the request of the Editor. BIBLIOGRAPHY OF PUBLICATIONS ON THE COMEDIA Compiled by Vern G.

El burlador de Sevilla y convidado de piedra

Molina, Tirso de. El burlador de Sevilla y convidado de piedra. Ed. William F. Hunter. Navarra: Centro para la Edicion de Clasicos Espanoles / Instituto de Estudios Tirsianos (GRISO), 2010. xlii + 155 pages.This unpretentious little paperback marks a milestone in scholarship on the princeps of the Burlador de Sevilla. The editor presents his criteria for a new critical edition in a clear and compelling manner in his prologue. This introductory statement is a model of its kind and sets the tone very nicely for the sober, exemplary edition that follows. We shall find no parti pris here, only the serious scholarship of a mature scholar. The issues of authorship, precedence, the Ur-text, and the filiation between the Burlador and Tan largo are addressed, but are taken into account only insofar as they relate directly to Hunter's laser-like focus on reconstructing the best possible text of B. The volume is remarkably free of typos. The notes are extensive and clear; he uses the customary B and TL abbreviations, along with C (indicating an emendation to E) and S (for the hypothetical antecedent of the seventeenth- and eighteenthcentury sueltas). The edition was completed in 2000 but did not see print until 2010.Two dueling critical editions, with both of which this one enters into dialogue-sometimes directly, sometimes by allusion-are those of Alfredo Rodriguez Lopez-Vazquez (Reichenberger, 1984) and Luis Vazquez (Revista Estudios, 1989). It is clear that Hunter considers the RL-V edition to be the most eccentric and undisciplined of any produced before or since (xv). He classifies Luis Vazquez as an archconservative (xiv) who balks at changes to the princeps while sometimes offering less than compelling explanations for what others see as imperfections. It was ever so in human affairs, I suppose: liberal vs. conservative, and, in this case, ultraliberal (RL-V) vs. ultraconservative (Vazquez). Hunter, although conservative in important ways, strives for the aurea mediocritas, guided by reason and rigor.There are quite human emotions that underlie the liberalism and conservatism alluded to above. RL-V was at the time a promising and ambitious young scholar in search of a reputation. He rode the authorship hobbyhorse and advanced an extreme notion of a hybrid text (drawing upon both B and TL, assuming both those two and the absent source text for both to be by Andres de Claramonte) about as far as either would go-and he did succeed in having us reexamine the evidence for paternity, such as it is. Vazquez was already the authority on Tirso and the editor of the respected Revista Estudios, but it did seem that he felt obliged to defend the honor of Tirso, a fellow Mercedarian, at all costs. In my two editions of the play (1991 and 1994), I followed the text established by Vazquez almost exclusively-but with 40 emendations and one major disagreement-because it adhered to the princeps and seemed to me the best available critical edition at that time, far preferable to the hybrid text of RL-V, and I could not take seriously the attribution to Claramonte. …
