Guevara Macías, E. (2020). Female Characters Classification in Aristophanic Comedy. Journal of Philology and Linguistics of the University of Costa Rica, 46(Especial), 117–136. https://doi.org/10.15517/rfl.v46iEspecial.41632
Abstract
In this paper, all female characters present in the Aristophanic comedies are classified following the categories exposed by Luis Gil (1993, 2012). They are grouped in imitative characters –of real historical figures or mythical origin–, and representative characters, whether invented with an original characterization, typified with generic categorization or made with personifications, which may have allegorical meaning. Next, the invention of each character, its function and comic interactions in the play are analyzed concisely.
