The soldadeiras were female characters that were traditionally considered as companions of troubadours and minstrels during their performance. The mockeries of these women are a commonplace in the cantigas de escarnio. They are ridiculed by having an excessive tendency towards game and lust, so in literary studies they were prone to be assimilated to prostitutes. The aim of this project is to carry out an interdisciplinary research that involves a literary and artistic analysis. It consists on the study of both moral and physical descriptio exclusively made of the so-called “soldadeiras” in the cantigas, as well as the representation of these women in the Galician Romanesque art. Although the literary characterization reflects a negative vision of these figures, the privileged position of their representations in the tympanums of some churches, such as San Miguel do Monte (Chantada, Lugo) or Santa Maria de Ucelle (Coles, Ourense), confirms that the literary interpretations of the cantigas de escarnio cannot be maintained, since their purpose was to make the audience laugh through a grotesque representation of the society of the time.
