Literary harmonies: music in some Daniel Moyano's short stories

This paper deals with the different interpretations generated by the particular story of Catalina de Erauso (1592-1650?), better known as the "Lieutenant Nun", who escapes from a convent in Spain and travels to America dressed as a man. She also takes part in several battles as a Lieutenant of the Spanish Crown. This story brings up different interpretations, among which at least two trends can be recognized: one of them from the late 19th century, in which she is considered "an exceptional being" or an "anthropologic phenomenon", carrying certain religious connotations. The other one, related to the late 20th century and contemporary critical essays, in which, due to the "queer" and "performatividad" theories the view has been renewed. The contrast between the different interpretations opens up new reflections about the importance of sociocultural context and about psychiatric category we usually think of when considering these types of stories.
