AZUELA, Cristina. From horror to laughter on medieval comic stories. Acta poét [online]. 2009, vol.30, n.1, pp.61-83. ISSN 2448-735X.
During the Middle Âges, stories about the devil and the returning of dead were mainly monopolized by didactic genres in an attempt of undermining the power of pagan beliefs. This paper examines some comic short stories, French and Italian (fabliaux and nouvelles), which rework the same material in a burlesque perspective. In the Cent Nouvelles nouvelles, two almost contiguous stories seem to reshape the same motifs but aiming to a completely different goal.
