Meaning of suripanta by Felipe Lorenzo del Río





Felipe Lorenzo del Río

suripanta
  12

The origin of this term, which has already been defined by the comrades, is in the refrain of the chorus girls of the operetta buffa of which Furoya speaks, "the young Telemachus" of the nineteenth-century writer Eusebio Blasco. The refrain in a false Greek sang thus: Suri panta , la suri panta , / macatruqui de somatén; / Sun Fáribun , Sun Faribén , / Maca Trúpiten Sangasimén . . . . The operetta was performed in 1866 at the Teatro Variedades on Calle de la Magdalena with great success. People began to call the girls in the chorus suripantas, with their cheerful and somewhat unkempt lives. Then came the RAE in 1925, much more rigid in its appraisals and sentenced: A vile, dishonest and unseemly woman.
