| Resum: | The present document offers an analysis of the main representations of Saint Mary of Egypt, both in literature and art from the Middle Ages to the 17th century. This study intends to demonstrate that the successful reception of La vida de Santa María Egipciaca is based on its unique representation of the ideas and values associated with the prostitute-saint paradigm. This analysis reviews the historical and socio-cultural basis of the legend of Maria of Egypt, justifying the relevance and consequential proliferation of works centered around her life. Lastly, the iconography present in the main pictorial representations of the Saint will be examined. |
