This work analyzes María de Zayas’s way of writing and the ideas that she expresses on this matter in her texts. In a genre without established precepts, Zayas publishes her work in two volumes (1637 and 1647 respectively) using new procedures as well as commenting on how to write a novel. Thus, she creates her own narrative theory within the pages of her work.
