The series belongs to a specific genre that used to be masculine and mainly centered on the conflicts resulting from the confrontation between individual male loyalties and their identities conditioned by their belonging to a political order. By humanizing the usual villains in the spy genre, the series introduces a certain moral ambiguity and the idea that political ideologies lose their value in the face of individual motivations. This article explores the use of the conventions of the spy genre and how the model is adapted to allow for the treatment of present-day concerns related to the individual’s struggle (now female as well) to reconcile public and private life. 000077155 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/H03-17R$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/FFI2015-63506-P 000077155 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby-nc-nd$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 000077155 592__ $$a0.14$$b2018 000077155 593__ $$aLanguage and Linguistics$$c2018$$dQ1 000077155 593__ $$aLiterature and Literary Theory$$c2018$$dQ1 000077155 593__ $$aLinguistics and Language$$c2018$$dQ1 000077155 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000077155 7102_ $$13004$$2345$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
