Abstract

This article studies the representation and assimilation of the playful facet of the courtly ethos in Adramón, a Spanish romance of chivalry preserved in a single manuscript in the National Library of France in Paris. The analysis highlights the importance of music and dance within the chivalric narrative according to the precepts that Baldassare Castiglione established in the Libro del cortegiano about courtly behavior, considering the presence of three specific dances in the work, their orientation, and function.
