Seventeenth-century short stories present different forms of gender based violence related to “cases of honor.” This paper focuses on the treatment that four thematic cores receive in the narrative works of Cervantes, Lope de Vega, María de Zayas and Mariana de Carvajal: a) imposed marriages, b) seduction and abandonment, c) sexual violence and d) femicides. These plot axes are fueled by motives of various origins (cultured and folkloric) and reflect the system of patriarchal values that permeate the collective consciousness.
Nella narrativa breve del XVII secolo si presentano diverse forme di violenza di genere, spesso vincolate a questioni d’onore. Questo articolo analizza il trattamento che ricevono quattro nuclei tematici nell’opera narrativa di Cervantes, Lope de Vega, María de Zayas e Mariana de Carvajal: a) i matrimoni imposti, b) la seduzione e l’abbandono, c) le violenze sessuali e d) i femminicidi. Tali nuclei argomentali si nutrono di motivi di varia provenienza (colta e folclorica) e riflettono il sistema di valori patriarcali che plasmano la coscienza collettiva.

Abstract
Seventeenth-century short stories present different forms of gender based violence related to “cases of honor.” This paper focuses on the treatment that four thematic cores receive in the narrative works of Cervantes, Lope de Vega, María de Zayas and Mariana de Carvajal: a) imposed marriages, b) seduction and abandonment, c) sexual violence and d) femicides. These plot axes are fueled by motives of various origins (cultured and folkloric) and reflect the system of patriarchal values that permeate the collective consciousness.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
