Abstract
The article links Galdós's review of Meyerbeer's opera La Africana, published in La Nación in 1865, with his reference to that opera in the "Viaje de novios" [Honeymoon] chapter of Fortunata y Jacinta. The romantic triangle of Sélica, Vasco de Gama, and Inés is compared to that of Fortunata as ambiguous examples of the Orientalized "Other."
