摘要:In the second half of 19th century Spain, discourse on social stability and female subordination —also referred to as «domesticity»— found its place in the theater through the representation of such themes as honor, female adultery, virtue and death. At the same time, theatrical discourse reinforced the current ideology and morality —even psychological and legislative discourse— and sanctioned behavioral models that sought to undermine the prevailing bourgeois social order. As a methodological example, we refer to the work entitled El nudo gordiano, by Eugenio Sellés y Ángel, one of a generation of playwrights born around the decade of the 1840s. The ending proposed by this author, namely, the death of the adulterous wife, occupied the center of all the possible immediate reactions, including responses from spectators, critics and analysts, authors and jurists, etc. For this reason we also discuss the critical reception of this work, taking note of its social and literary repercussions.
