La presente tesi si propone di analizzare il ruolo della donna nella Spagna del XIX secolo, un ruolo essenzialmente limitato all’ambiente domestico e che attribuisce alla donna una posizione di sottomissione rispetto alla figura maschile. Nella società spagnola del XIX secolo, la donna non gode degli stessi diritti dell’uomo e l’unica sua aspirazione è il matrimonio. Nel panorama letterario a cavallo tra XIX e XX secolo emerge la figura di Emilia Pardo Bazán, un’autrice che, nel corso della sua vita e della sua produzione letteraria, ha lottato per la difesa dei diritti della donna. L’autrice sostiene la causa femminista e crede fermamente che l’accesso delle donne all’istruzione e al mondo del lavoro consentirebbero il progresso della nazione e permetterebbero inoltre alle stesse di raggiungere l’emancipazione. Il romanzo Morriña (1889) di Emilia Pardo Bazán, attraverso la storia della domestica Esclavitud Lamas, descrive la condizione della donna dell’epoca e i pregiudizi tipici di una società patriarcale.
