Abstract

El caballero del Febo, by Juan Pérez de Montalbán, is an extraordinary example of divine chivalric theatre, since the plot is created by transforming the motifs and characters of the books of chivalry into religious allegories. In this article an exhaustive analysis of the play is carried out, taking into account the adaptation of the religious theme to the chivalric motifs and, subsequently, both its intertextuality and its similarity to other works written by Montalbán are identified.
