Summary: "Tristana" by Benito Pérez Galdós is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young woman named Tristana, who lives under the guardianship of the aging Don Lope Garrido. The narrative explores themes of love, independence, and the constraints placed upon women in society, as Tristana navigates her complicated relationship with Don Lope, who represents a blend of admiration and possessiveness in a changing world. The opening of "Tristana" introduces us to Don Lope Garrido, a proud yet fallible man living in modest accommodations in the Chamberí neighborhood of Madrid. He is shown to have a complex character, who, despite his faded gallantry and dubious morals, takes Tristana under his wing after her mother’s death. Tristana is described in detail, emphasizing her beauty and innocence, as the narrative hints at the power dynamic between her and Don Lope, who exerts a paternalistic control over her life. As Tristana begins to awaken to her desires for independence and experiences the struggles of her oppressive situation, her character becomes emblematic of the broader struggles faced by women in her society.
