	Lazarillo de Tormes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Lazarillo de Tormes was banned by the Spanish Crown and included in the Index of Forbidden Books of the Spanish Inquisition; this was at least in part due to the book's anti-clerical flavour.
		Long before Moll Flanders (Daniel Defoe), Lazarillo describes the domestic and working life of a poor woman, wife, mother, climaxing in the flogging of Lazarillo's mother through the streets of the town after her fl husband Zayde is hung as a thief.

		Y dejéle en poder de mucha gente que lo había ido a socorrer, y tomé la puerta de la villa en los pies de un trote, y antes que la noche viniese di conmigo en Torrijos.
		Subióse al pie del altar y de allí decía cosas maravillosas, diciendo que por la poca caridad que había en ellos había Dios permitido aquel milagro y que aquella cruz había de ser llevada a la santa iglesia mayor de su Obispado; que por la poca caridad que en el pueblo había, la cruz ardía.
		Creo de cierto que se tomaron más de tres mil bulas, como tengo dicho a V.M. Después, al partir, él fue con gran reverencia, como es razón, a tomar la santa cruz, diciendo que la había de hacer engastonar en oro, como era razón.

	Giancarlo Maiorino: At the Margins of the Renaissance
		Published anonymously in 1554, Lazarillo de Tormes upset all the strict hierarchies that governed art and society during the Renaissance.
		Although literary historians generally connect the rise of the novel to the needs of the middle classes of England, Maiorino demonstrates that its deepest roots are in the culture of indigence that developed at the peripheries of Renaissance society and challenged—even parodied—its authoritarian ambitions.
		Seen in this light, Lazarillo de Tormes emerges as a key text in understanding the novel's purchase on visions of escape from authority into alternative modes of existence.

		Influenced largely by the medieval tradition of the fabliaux and by the early Italian Renaissance, and structured upon a foundation of anecdotes, proverbs, popular beliefs, and folk tales, the pícaro’s discourse becomes a satirical survey of the hypocrisies and corruptions of society.
		The picaresque novel is exemplified by the prototypical and anonymously written Lazarillo de Tormes, published in 1554, in which the poor boy Lázaro describes his services under seven successive lay and clerical masters, each of whom hides a dubious character beneath a mask of hypocrisy.
		For the modern reader, the choice of characters and the backdrop for Lazarillo de Tormes reveal the heart of Spain’s national dilemma after the crucial events of the 1520s.

		The word picaro is first used, apparently, in a letter written by Eugenio de Salazar at Toledo on the 15th of April 1560; the etymology which derives picaro from picar (to pick up) is unsatisfactory to philologists, but it suggests the picaroons chief business in life.

	J.L. Thomas: Review of Maiorino, Lazarillo de Tormes
		At the Margins of the Renaissance: Lazarillo de Tormes and the Picaresque Art of Survival, Giancarlo Maiorino's analysis of a sixteenth-century Spanish picaresque tale, examines the stages of Lázaro de Tormes' life as well as the literary, cultural, and economic contexts of the production of the text.
		Maiorino approaches Lazarillo de Tormes from the perspective of econopoetics, which "considers how socioeconomic factors are central to the poetics of literary works," specifically "parallels between economic and literary modes of productions turn mimesis into 'econo-mimesis,' which brings to the fore those precapitalist aspects of the Renaissance" (2).
		In Lazarillo de Tormes, "'Low' picaresque and 'high' heroic images intersect in a parodic mode that becomes momentous once it is transcribed into a literary framework" (127).

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
		The picaroon strain, already made familiar in Spain by the "Lazarillo de Tormes" and its successors, appears in one or another of them especially in the "Rinconete y Cortadillo", which is the best of all.
		The countless novels of knightly daring which had followed in the wake of the very worthy "Amadis de Gaula" had obtained an unwonted vogue and had created an air of false idealism which tended to leave Spain unduly in the rear of advancing civilization, for, cherishing them, she clung too closely to the medieval past.
		For administrative reasons, the Emperor Charles V felt compelled in 1553 to forbid the introduction of the chivalrous romances into the American Indies, and this law the Spanish Parliament would fain have extended to Spain itself in 1558, in order to penalize the further publication of works of the class.

	Play and the Picaresque: `Lazarillo de Tormes,' `Libro de Manuel,' and `Match Ball' by Peter N. Dunn (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Reviewed in University of Toronto Quarterly by PETER N. Picaresque is seemingly a term that can be invoked whenever a tricky protagonist is set in a fictional world which he can exploit to his advantage and, in so doing, expose folly or corruption in his surroundings.
		She largely evades the contentious question of the constitution of the `picaresque genre' and whether such a genre exists by singling out Lazarillo de Tormes as the generic model.
		Nevertheless, picaresque is repeatedly invoked, for example, in the characters' concern for survival, although in this work their concern is rather for the half-baked and futile revolutionary gesture.
