La vida es sueño, de Pedro Calderón de la Barca, dramatiza los efectos de la caída del concepto tolemaico del universo y su reemplazo por ideas derivadas de la revolución copernicana y sus efectos. El principal fue la concepción del universo como infinito, lo cual cuestionaba los límites de otros códigos que regulaban la política y el arte. Atrapado en un universo infinito el Rey Basilio y su hijo, el Príncipe Segismundo, tienen que acudir a la improvisación, el primero con resultados desastrosos, el segundo para convertirse en monarca a la segunda intentona. El Barroco se basa en códigos que sabe son vacíos, como el tolemaico y la mitología clásica, que despliega de forma elaborada para cubrir su vaciedad.
