Símbolos y arquetipos en la trinidad protagonista de <i>La Celestina</i>
Abstract
This paper analyses the archetypical associations lying behind the three main characters names of de Rojas’ work: Calisto, Melibea and Celestina. The archetypes hidden in their names may function as non-conscious mechanisms that would explain their psychological profiles. In exploring the symbology associated to those names, together with their mythical and allegorical connections, it is possible to explain their personalities and to foresee their tragic destinies.
