| This work is volume 4 of the 'Enciclopedia Deiknumena'. All volumes in the encyclopedia are bilingual, in English and Spanish. "A mask is more than a face. It covers the face in order to hide common features and propose new and unknown ones. In some cultures and contexts, the mask represents the spirit and soul of the wearer. In others, it depicts the face of 'the other' in order to defeat him, or to temporarily assume her identity and in others still, it is a mechanism to incorporate a second character in a play withe the complicity of the audience." Rosa Luisa Márquez, from the text. |
