Retrato de la Lozana Andaluza by Francisco Delicado
"Retrato de la Lozana Andaluza" by Francisco Delicado is a novel published in Venice in 1528. Written in dialogue form, it follows Aldonza, an Andalusian prostitute, and her companion Rampín through Rome's underworld in the early sixteenth century. The work vividly portrays the tricks, deceptions, and crude realities of prostitution among the Spanish-Jewish community before Rome's sacking. Rich with popular wisdom, folklore, and a混合 of Italian and Spanish, this picaresque tale captures
Renaissance life from the streets with unflinching naturalism and remarkable vitality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
