Descrição
Resumo:The main objective of this research is to demonstrate that the strategies of power in La Celestina pass through language, eloquence and rhetoric to impose a vertical model of authority among the characters. Celestina is the main source of manipulation in this tragicomedy thanks to what Mikhail Bakhtin calls “authoritative discourse”. The characters move in a chaotic and multidirectional world sponsored by various instances of manipulation that permeate the discourse of Celestina. The approach used is that of textual and comparative analysis. As a result, this investigation shows that the death of Celestina is directly related to the ideological awakening of Pármeno and Sempronio or what Bakhtin calls "internalpersuasivediscourse."
