Abstract

For centuries, the business of prostitution was an activity tolerated and protected by justice: from the end of the 15th century a process of regularization began in Spain that culminated in the second half of the 16th century. Consequently, the streets of the cities were filled with prostitutes, pimps and clients who required the services of public women. The authors of the Golden Age are interested in these figures and they literaturize the prostitution network and the lifestyle of its protagonists.Specifically, it is in the continuations and imitations of La Celestina where a greater reflection of all this can be observed. The aim of this article is to study the relationship established between the literature of La Celestina and the history of prostitution, in order to analyze the role played by literature in society and, likewise, by society in literature.
