Poética de la novela en María de Zayas

Abstract

This work analyzes María de Zayas’s way of writing and the ideas that she expresses on this matter in her texts. In a genre without established precepts, Zayas publishes her work in two volumes (1637 and 1647 respectively) using new procedures as well as commenting on how to write a novel. Thus, she creates her own narrative theory within the pages of her work.
