Sumario:This article aims mainly at analyzing the parody of books of chivalry and of their censors in Quixote considering how ethical and aesthetic issues take part in the parody construction. By emphasizing knights and reading as analytical axes, the article has as its secondary objectives to gather information on the historical existence of knights-errant; the origin and tradition of chivalric romance in Europe and Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries; the structuring of new categories of reading and readers; as well as that period intellectuals’ concerns in this regard. It expects to demonstrate that, by means of books of chivalry, parody, and of their censors, Cervantes formulates a praise for fiction.
