ESCRIBIENDO PARA ELLAS. ACERCA DE LAS OBRAS DE MARÍA DE ZAYAS Y SOR MARCELA DE SAN FÉLIX

Abstract

In the following pages we will attempt a brief look at the works of María de Zayas y Sotomayor and Marcela de San Félix, two illustrious authors of the Golden Age whose cultural legacies have survived to the present day. Their works offer an important
example of the courage with which they faced the difficulties of a life dedicated to the female communities around them through literature, in their desire to give voice to something that, in addition to reflecting their literary skills, would serve them both as support and entertainment in their daily lives.
