Description
Summary:This thesis offers a modernized and annotated edition of Perez de Montalban's "El palacio encantado." This short novel was originally published in the author's miscellaneous work Para todos (1632), which includes several other pieces such as comedias, autos sacramentales, discursos, and two other novelas. This volume has not been edited since the 18th century, despite the enormous popularity that it enjoyed during the 17th century. The first part of my thesis is an introduction. In it, I offer, first, a short biography of Montalban and a succint account of his works. Next, I critically analyze the text of "El palacio encantado": its literary values, issues of verisimilitude, main characters, etc., and compare it to other contemporary short novels. The third section of my introduction explains the editorial criteria used in the present edition. Theoretical aspects regarding modernization and annotation, are discussed and illustrated with examples drawn from "El palacio encantado." Finally, I list all known editions of the Para todos, and comment on the ones I have used for my own edition. The second part of the thesis contains the edited text itself, with numerous philological footnotes. The thesis ends with a full bibliography of works cited.
