Fuente Ovejuna is a play by Lope de Vega ()[].


The original text

Translations and adaptations

The Afrikaans author, poet, translator and playwright Uys Krige, seeing the Spanish play in Madrid in 1935, was inspired to begin writing plays himself, and intertextually acknowledged that heritage in the choice of the title for his own war play Fuente Sagrada (1949).

The full De Vega text was translated into Afrikaans as Skaapfontein ("Sheep Fountain") by Alewyn Lee in 1963.
