Resumen
El propósito de este estudio es ahondar en la literatura pastoril española, pues, parece
ser una de las grandes desconocidas en nuestro país, en comparación con otros géneros. Para
conocer las obras de este, en España, ha sido necesario remontarse a la literatura
grecolatina, con autores como Virgilio, que presentarán en sus obras a pastores en una
naturaleza exuberante. Tras esto, se ha tratado el género bucólico en el teatro y en la poesía,
finalizando con la novela pastoril, pues, fue donde triunfó. Para analizar la novela pastoril
española se ha tenido en cuenta Los siete libros de la Diana (1559) de Jorge de Montemayor,
obra con la que arranca el género y otras obras que surgieron tras su éxito y difusión, como la
Diana enamorada (1564) de Gil Polo o la Galatea (1585) de Cervantes.
