Being a pastoral novel, La Galatea formally adopts the model of Sannazaros's Arcadia, followed in Spanish by Montemayor, Gil Polo or Galvez de Montalvo, and inserts different songs of the shepherds into the prose. Nevertheless, this novel shows the reader an unexpected plot that denies the ideals of the bucolic tradition. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to analyse the function of the main characters' poems (Elicio, Erastro and Galatea) within this questioning of the bucolic ideals. A formal analyse of the poems will be carried out to show how the shepherds' songs dialogue and anticipate the transformation of the characters and their world.

Abstract
Being a pastoral novel, La Galatea formally adopts the model of Sannazaros's Arcadia, followed in Spanish by Montemayor, Gil Polo or Galvez de Montalvo, and inserts different songs of the shepherds into the prose. Nevertheless, this novel shows the reader an unexpected plot that denies the ideals of the bucolic tradition. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to analyse the function of the main characters' poems (Elicio, Erastro and Galatea) within this questioning of the bucolic ideals. A formal analyse of the poems will be carried out to show how the shepherds' songs dialogue and anticipate the transformation of the characters and their world.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
