MATOS, Kevin. Another look at love and pleasure in the Tragicomedia de Calisto y Melibea. Nueva rev. filol. hisp. [online]. 2021, vol.69, n.2, pp.797-822.  Epub 06-Set-2021. ISSN 2448-6558.  https://doi.org/10.24201/nrfh.v69i2.3756.

Without discarding altogether readings taht emphasize the moralizing aspects of the work, in this article I intend to explore the plausibility of privileging pleasure, rather than morality, as the principal purpose of the Tragicomedia. To do so, I turn to the ambiguous texts of naturalist erotology, according to which love is a natural and ineluctable force that always cancels out reason, being itself a source of great delight. A careful reading of these related texts obliges us to relativize any reading of Celestina.
