Sumario:The article discusses the possible sources of Juan Bautista Diamante's "La reina María Estuarda." One author believes that the chief historical source of the play was the one written by Antonio de Herrera, but he failed to document his reasons. The play had also shown indirect borrowings from Regnault's "Marie Stuard" in the presentation of the characters. It also says that the play had similarities in some scenarios and characters in Lope de Vega's "La corona trágica."
