- «Narrar los espacios íntimos. Reflexiones en torno a "Realidad" y "Su único hijo"»

Between the Eighties and the Nineties of the 19th century, the investigative area of the reality has exceeded, undoubtedly, the social dimension, opening cracks towards the intimate spaces of the individual. The reasons of the human conduct need now deeper polls, for what into the literature the environments fade away, the descriptions are outlined and the details become vague and absolutely personal, because the royal thing has become essentially symbolic. To give literary form, that is to say with narrative vesimilitude, which has his headquarters in the intimate spaces, to plan a verbal code, that is to say, of the passions, of the dramas, of the desires or of the obsessions of the individual it forms, therefore, the determination of the writers who have embraced the naturalistic practice and that, now, individualize his limits. The study centers in Galdós's text, Realidad, both in his fictional and dramatic forms, and in Clarín’s one, Su único hijo. The naturalistic formula already is insufficient, and Galdós and Clarín demonstrate in his exercises of writing that they have full conscience of it.
