Cartografia de meravelles: les llegendes del Corpus Penya-Arxiduc Lluís Salvador

Abstract

[eng] The article focuses on a corpus, partly inedited, of legends recollected by Mallorca's oral tradition by the late XIX century by Antoni M. Penya, from the basis of a Commission of scholar Louis Salvador of Austria, who acted as editor. He classifies them based on the narrative types present in the collection (sacred legends, magical, demonic and successes), when revisiting the subject, the spaces where they take place, the principal characters (humans, demonic or with magical powers) and, finally presents some conclusions in which he marks the possible functionalities in contemporary contexts.
