Abstract
Sentimental education during during Franco’s dictatorship had had a powerful ally in verse due to its popular success and its widespread diffusion. In this work we address the study of verse from the perspective of its normative nature, which is based on the habits of the time and on the images that women transmit. Patriarcal models spread through verse, usually by plays. Nonetheless, works founding the construction of women images on humor and drawing on stereotypes to ridicule models and situations were published, but to a lesser extent. Our corpus of analysis is Rafael de León’s works.
