Resumo: The architecture of the Alhambra is made up of words: a feminine epigraphy that shows itself in the most relevant spaces. In them is manifested the figure of the bride, who will be married in all her splendour. Through its poems we also cover the myths about women that existed centuries ago: queens of legendary countries, concubines, and yet others who would be imagined. These imagined women would form part of the Orientalist artists’ desire and re-creation, who would show in their artworks this hidden and extraordinary world which they would never enter. For the Western painters of the 19th century, the image of the Muslim woman, above all in the harem and the hammam, would represent a dreamlike space: intimate, intangible, but very real and erotic, and which would be captured in their artwork.

En ellos, se manifiesta la figura de la novia, de la que será desposada en todo su esplendor. A través de sus poemas, recorreremos también los mitos sobre mujeres que existieron hace siglos; reinas de países de leyenda, concubinas y otras que serán imaginadas. Las imaginadas formarán parte del deseo y la recreación de los artistas orientalistas; aquéllos que mostrarán en sus obras ese mundo oculto y extraordinario en el que nunca entrarían. Para los pintores occidentales del siglo XIX, la imagen de la mujer musulmana, sobre todo en el harem y en el hamman, constituirá un espacio onírico, íntimo, no tangible, pero muy real y erótico, que se plasmará en sus obras.A arquitetura da Alhambra constitui-se de palavras; uma epigrafia feminina que se mostra nas paredes dos espaços mais relevantes. Neles, observa-se a figura de uma noiva, em todo o seu esplendor, antes do casamento. Por meio de seus poemas, conhecem-se os mitos sobre mulheres que existiram, há séculos; rainhas de legendários países, concubinas e outras que povoam o imaginário. As imaginadas integram o desejo e a recriação de artistas orientais, que reproduzem em suas obras um mundo oculto e extraordinário do qual nunca fariam parte. Para os pintores ocidentais do século XIX, a imagem da mulher muçulmana no harém e no hamman se constitui em um espaço onírico, íntimo, intangível, porém muito real e erótico, que se reproduz em suas obras.Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle Canoas2018-07-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseion/article/view/469910.18316/mouseion.v0i29.4699Mouseion; No. 29 (2018); p. 177-200Revista Mouseion; n. 29 (2018); p. 177-2001981-7207reponame:Mouseion (Canoas)instname:Centro Universitário La Salle (Unilasalle)instacron:UNILASALLEspahttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseion/article/view/4699/pdfCopyright (c) 2018 Mouseioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMolina, Juana María Biedma2022-05-23T17:45:02Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/4699Revistahttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseionhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseion/oai||revista.mouseion@unilasalle.edu.br1981-72071981-7207opendoar:2022-05-23T17:45:02Mouseion (Canoas) - Centro Universitário La Salle (Unilasalle)false
