Resumen
CAMPOS GARCIA ROJAS, Axayácatl. Medea in the Hispanic Books of Chivalry: Books, Myth and Exemplarity. Acta poét [online]. 2011, vol.32, n.2, pp.115-143. ISSN 2448-735X.
This paper deals with Medea as a character. Her role in Castilian romances of chivalry, her description, along with different portraits found in the genre. Medea is considered not just as a reference, a simple presence or an allusion, but rather as practically a literary motif characteristic of the genre. There are several chivalrous works which include Medea as aforementioned, but the paper will focus on las Sergas de Esplandián (1504), Lisuarte de Grecia (1514), Floriseo (1516), Polindo (1526), Baldo (1542), Belianís de Grecia (1547), El Cavallero del Febo (1555) and Espejo de príncipes y caballeros. Parte III (1588).
