Este trabajo examina las artes retóricas de Celestina en dos episodios de la obra: la persuasión de Pármeno, en palabras de María Rosa Lida, la piedra de toque de las artes celestinescas; y los momentos previos a su muerte, es decir, cuando se produce el fracaso de sus capacidades de dominio sobre las voluntades ajenas. Desde una perspectiva retórica que parte de los modelos clásicos pero los adapta a maniobras argumentativas no codificadas por los tratadistas de la antigüedad, es decir, a la luz del tratado de argumentación de Chaim Perelman, se ponen de relieve puntos clave de las estratagemas celestinescas y el principal error retórico que la conduce a la muerte.

This special issue outlines the advances, challenges, and prospects brought forth by the making and extensive use of digital archives in medieval scholarship, with particular attention to Iberian medievalism. The first four contributions discuss, respectively, the making of two different archives devoted to lyric corpora (one with a textual emphasis, the other one with a material focus), a census of vernacular translations, and the evolution of a database project since its analog origins. The last four articles consider the significance of archives for the discipline and analyze the not so desirable consequences of digital reading practices, the opportunities for transnational archives to resurge, the enhancement of glossatorial activities, and the promotion of manuscript studies through digital scholarship.
