Abstract

In spite of having received considerable critical attention, Emilia Pardo Bazán’s wellknown novel Los Pazos de Ulloa has not yet been examined from the point of view of its representation of homosexual love and desire. By closely examining the text, this essay shows how the latent homosexuality of the main protagonist, Julián, and his unspoken desire for his master, don Pedro, are not only fundamental motifs but also key factors in the progression of the narrative structure and participate fully in its coherence.
