Este artículo muestra al don Juan del barroco y al pícaro como experimentos fallidos de la libertad moderna. Los dos saborean esa libertad como un fruto prohibido, y terminan siendo víctimas de sus deseos; condenados a la soledad, los dos escenifican de una forma particular eso que María Zambrano llamó la encarnación del Absolutismo en la existenc...

We thus approach the Lezamian theory of image and knowledge by analyzing its myth-poetic-hermeneutical method and its concept-character...
En este artículo analizo el retrato negativo que se hacía de la figura de la viuda en los siglos XVI y XVII, con especial atención a su vestimenta (sobre todo, las tocas). Me centro luego en dos poemas del XVII, de Catalina Clara Ramírez de Guzmán y de Leonor de la Cueva, que presentan un nuevo modelo de viuda, joven e independiente.

Su obra plantea interrogantes de orden estético relacionados ta...
