Resumen de El personaje femenino: expresión de dama, expresividad de gitana
María Teresa Lozano de Castro, María Pilar Moreno Agudo
In Marcela, Preciosa, and Dorotea, Cervantes demonstrates to the reader the operation of ¿free will¿ vis à vis the ¿object of beauty,¿ while at the same time nostalgically portraying the ¿classicist woman.¿ The author therefore presents a complex world, realistically sketched, but presented with but a single background: the stereotype of woman in the ¿glorious Golden Age,¿ a semi-divine woman, an ideal who bridged the human and the divine, thus sustaining Paradise, and finally a free expression of divine light.
