Folkloric Structure And Narrative Voice In Bècquer's Leyendas, Linda M. Willem
Folkloric Structure And Narrative Voice In Bècquer's Leyendas, Linda M. Willem
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
The bulk of the critical study of Gustavo Bècquer's leyendas has dealt with the thematics, stylistics, or the folkloric motifs and origins of the individual works. Surprisingly little attention has been given to the structure or the narrative techniques used in the leyendas as a whole. The purpose of this study is to examine these structural and narrative aspects from a folkloric perspective in order to better appreciate Bècquer's blending of popular and literary art forms.
