Resumen de La disputa del baciyelmo y "El retablo de las maravillas": sobre el carácter dramático de los capítulos 44 y 45 de la primera parte de Don Quijote

Verónica Azcue Castillón

• Features of the dispute over the identity of the barber's basin characterize it as a both static and action-oriented type of entremés. Specific affinities link it with ¿El retablo de las maravillas.¿ Structural similarities arise from a common pattern of dramatic development. Three motifs are central to both works: the relationship between drama and life, the perspectivism of human experience, and the importance of class distinctions.
