La de Bringas es una novela publicada en 1884 por Benito Perez Galdos, una de las que componen su magna serie de Novelas espanolas contemporaneas que, al desarrollarse casi en su totalidad en escenarios de la capital de Espana, han generado literariamente el "Madrid galdosiano," similar al Londres de Dickens o el Paris de Balzac. La novela, junto con El doctor Centeno (1883) y Tormento (1884), cierra una posible y discutida trilogia que transcurre en los anos anteriores a la Revolucion de 1868. Algunos criticos han senalado la posibilidad de que Galdos usase el conjunto para explicar la similitud entre esos anos y los de la Restauracion, periodo durante el cual escribio la novela. Rosalia Pipaon, esposa de Francisco de Bringas (alias Thiers) ha logrado su sueno y ahora vive en el Palacio Real de Madrid, al servicio de la reina Isabel II con la que tiene ciertas semejanzas tanto fisicas como psicologicas (del mismo modo que su marido con don Francisco de Asis, consorte de la reina). Con sus aspiraciones sociales conseguidas, no puede evitar embarcarse en una serie de gastos para poder mantener el nivel de la clase que la rodea, excesos que va acumulando sin que se entere su marido, hasta que las deudas acumuladas la lleven a prostituirse."
