Abstract

Benito Pérez Galdós had an exceptional talent for characterizing his characters. The caricaturesque descriptions stand out in his work. This paper analyzes the influences that converge in some of  of these descriptions and the reason why Galdós includes hyperbolic and caricatural descriptions close to the unreal in novels of a realistic nature and intention. It is concluded that these descriptions are reflectect the usual fusión in his narrative between the magical-allegorical and the documentary-realistic, between the amazing dream and the daily observation.
