Abstract

My purpose is to go back to the description of Lisbon, always depicted rather polemically by the critics, on El burlador de Sevilla by Tirso de Molina, who divided the academic world in regards to the relevance of don Gonzalo’s parliament to king Afonso XI, in the first act. Besides I intend to carry out a new analysis, on the one hand, on the hierarchy of elements presents, from an interpretative perspective of the fragment, taking as baseline, also to diverge, the most complete work about the description of Lisboa, of Marc Vitse, published in 1978.
