+''[[Fuente Sagrada]]'' ("sacred spring") is an [[Afrikaans]] one-act play by [[Uys Krige]] (1910–1987).
 ==The original text==
+The play, written in [[Afrikaans]] despite the Spanish title, is an indictment of the brutality of war and is set in the Spanish Civil War, with salvation of the central character, Marais, serving as a metaphor for the triumph of human dignity amidst the dehumanization brought about by war.
 The Spanish title, taken from the name of a holy well of the same name, is intertextually reminiscent of course of Lope de Vega's masterly play ''[[Fuente Ovejuna]]'' (1612), which recounts the late-fifteenth-century uprising of an Andalusian village against an abusive military commander.  In fact it had been a student performance of the De Vega play, seen by Krige at the Lope de Vega festival in Madrid in 1935, that inspired Krige to become a dramatist in the first place[https://www.litnet.co.za/uys-krige-1910-1987/].
