After a brief exposition regarding the situation, Calderón's recourse to travestism appears as the symbol of this theatre, mechanism of ideological transmission and unifying element of the whole of this dramatic production (profane, sacramental and brief). The ideological aspect is analysed and therein its relationship with womanhood. Herewith Calderón appears as a forerunner of modernism, since femenine roles distort the restriction imposed by a baroque society. As a result of travestism. Calderón's women do not fit the epoch's stereotypes. They transgress the activities and spaces assigned to their sex, protecting their honour and facing male authority. Definitely, women behave as complete human beings in equal condition to men.
