Abstract

This article studies some episodes from romances of chivalry belonging to the Espejo de príncipes y cavalleros cycle. In these episodes, it is posible to identify some narrative features defined as pre-cervantine, in terms of the handling of humor. These works and the use of these humoristic features may be considered as antecedents for Miguel de Cervantes an his writing in Don Quixote, and other of his works.
