This paper studies some aspects of the deep reading of chivalric books and its consequences in the frame of the «normative» functions that, in a context of typographic acculturation, the printed book acquires by the mere fact of being written and printed with the protection of the law. By means of some cases of readers or hearers of texts well illustrated in inquisitorial processes, the article notes how the popular and chivalric book, in certain social spheres, is still in the sixteenth century (and also in the seventeenth) something transcendental in virtue of its normative and probably also pedagogical condition due to the fact of being printed.
Se examinan algunos aspectos de la lectura profunda del libro caballaresco y sus consecuencias en el marco de las funciones «normativas» que, en el ámbito de la aculturación tipográfica, adquiere el libro impreso por el solo hecho de ser escrito y de ser impreso con la protección de la ley. Valiéndose de algunos casos de lectores u oidores de textos bien ilustrados en procesos inquisitoriales, el artículo constata cómo el libro popular y caballeresco sigue siendo en el siglo xvi (y también en el xvii) y en determinados ámbitos sociales, algo trascendental en virtud de su condición normativa por impreso y, probablemente también pedagógica.
