ESSAY ON: Dona Sebastiana

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: A 3 page essay that analyzes the Hispanic folk tale “Dona Sebastiana.” As pointed out by G.M. Padilla in the introduction to this story, this tale is a “cuentos morales (morality tale),” whose purpose is to “instill a complex religio-social sensibility in young listeners” (Padilla 1501). The purpose of the story is to convey a sense of fatalistic acceptance of the reality and justice of death, as death is the great equalizer, coming to all within the course of time. Furthermore, the story addresses issues of hypocrisy and also social justice. No bibliography is offered.
