Abstract
Gonzalo Torrente Ballester’s novel, entitled Crónica del rey pasmado, pres- ents an ecphrasis at the beginning which, if examined in the light of visual culture studies, can offer an interesting reading of the work. Body and image constitute two true central narrative axes that open the question of sexual and erotic desire in an era, that of the 17th century, in which the prohibitions dictated by the Holy Inquisition impose profound control on social customs.File in questo prodotto:
