Abstract

In the eleventh act, Pármeno fears that the first encounter with Melibea will lead to danger, for which he compares her to a siren. His words turn out to be prophetic, especially since he is not the only one who dies. In the end, the maiden proves to be as fascinating, dangerous and lethal as the sirens with which she is compared.
