Los textos de la risa. Un nuevo testimonio de las Premáticas y aranceles generales

Abstract

This paper revises many versions that have been incorporated, during the last few years, to the textual tradition of Quevedo’s burlesque prose. Actually, it’s focusing on the Premáticas y aranceles generales, a text that till now has been transmitted through a unique manuscript from the xviii century. Another manuscript from the xvii century, in which that text is included, is analyzed in the following pages and allows us now to improve their variantes, and confirms the importance of research and discovering of fontes criticae inside the editorial process.
