Abstract

Giordano Bruno’s writings about magic, combined with certain ideas present in the paratexts of Fernando de Rojas’ La Celestina show essential principles in order to interpret this unique fictional work. Among them, both the presence of parallel social structures, together with certain allegories, such as the one of the Echenneis, are essential in the understanding of the dynamics of the social structure of Fernando de Rojas’ work. As a consequence of the weak and manipulative nature of human beings, Celestina’s art of manipulation is presented as an essential aspect in order to understand the holistic meaning of the world of La Celestina.
