Lafamilia a la moda is a work by the dramatist Maria Rosa Gálvez (1805) that exploits the comic possibilities of the clash between the traditional conservatism of the provinces and the frivolous and Frenchified modernity of the urban family. This article analyzes the conflict, paying particular attention to the two women protagonists (the austere highlander Doña Guiomar and the frivolous petimetra Madame Pimpleas). The study of this latter character focuses on her roles as inadequate wife and unnatural mother, which transforms her into a person who rebels against and subverts both the patriarcal system and masculine authority.
