Abstract The image of a courtly and cosmopolitan Madrid that enjoyed an intense cultural life where millions were spent on luxurious festivals that attracted famous artists and travelers also contained a marginal space where poor people, the crippled, thieves, soldiers, gamblers, prostitutes, and black people lived and made a living. Where the long walks along the Prado at sunset lost their gallantry and became spaces of the night where ruffians challenged each other to duels and ended up, in most cases, in the overpopulated jails of the kingdom. Where the domestic space was transformed into house brothels and gambling dens, full of gamblers and onlookers. Where in the streets, one did not go only to shop but to beg for alms, to con and rob, or where the churches, a place of knowledge and shelter, became places for amorous and clandestine meetings, and where prostitutes, thieves, and murderers hid to escape the law. In this article, I will examine the social meaning of this underworld in seventeenth-century urban Madrid from the perspective of marginality. My interpretation of the urban centers explores baroque Madrid as a space of conflict. From this conflict, new ways of speaking, living, writing, and reinventing urban landscapes arise. Many of the short pieces written in that time articulate their plots through the relationships between marginal society and the established power structures and exhibit social changes in light of the economic processes associated with the development of Madrid as the imperial capital.

Lacras Urbanas: Juego, prostitución y mendicidad en el entremés barroco

摘要 一个宫廷和国际化的马德里享受着强烈的文化生活，数百万人花在吸引着名艺术家和旅行者的豪华节日上的形象也包含一个边缘空间，穷人、残废、小偷、士兵、赌徒、妓女和黑人。人们生活并谋生。日落时分沿着普拉多河的长长散步失去了他们的勇气，变成了夜晚的地方，在那里恶棍互相挑战决斗，并且在大多数情况下，最终被关进了人口过多的王国监狱。家里的空间变成了妓院和赌场，到处都是赌徒和围观者。在大街上，人们不仅去购物，还去乞讨、行骗和抢劫，或者那里的教堂，一个知识和庇护所，变成了多情和秘密聚会的地方，妓女、小偷和杀人犯为了逃避法律而躲藏的地方。在这篇文章中，我将从边缘性的角度来审视这个 17 世纪马德里城市黑社会的社会意义。我对城市中心的解释将巴洛克风格的马德里视为一个冲突空间。从这场冲突中，出现了新的说话、生活、写作和重塑城市景观的方式。当时写的许多短篇文章都通过边缘社会与既定权力结构之间的关系来阐明他们的情节，并根据与马德里作为帝国首都发展相关的经济进程来展示社会变化。我将从边缘性的角度审视这个 17 世纪马德里城市黑社会的社会意义。我对城市中心的解释将巴洛克风格的马德里视为一个冲突空间。从这场冲突中，出现了新的说话、生活、写作和重塑城市景观的方式。当时写的许多短篇都通过边缘社会与既定权力结构之间的关系来阐明他们的情节，并根据与马德里作为帝国首都发展相关的经济进程展示了社会变化。我将从边缘性的角度审视这个 17 世纪马德里城市黑社会的社会意义。我对城市中心的解释将巴洛克风格的马德里视为一个冲突空间。从这场冲突中，出现了新的说话、生活、写作和重塑城市景观的方式。当时写的许多短篇文章都通过边缘社会与既定权力结构之间的关系来阐明他们的情节，并根据与马德里作为帝国首都发展相关的经济进程来展示社会变化。
