This article analyses the episode of the Máscara de griegos y troyanos in Luis Milán's El cortesano (1561) and the influence of chivalric fiction in its literary construction. In the first part, a brief historical and cultural approach to the work is described, as well as the link between chivalric fiction and the courtly festivity of the time. The second part consists of the study of the Masque and its relationship with the chivalric tournament, detailing the similarities in the structure, the chivalric motifs and the lexicon used.
