Pious Brief Narrative In Mediaeval Castilian And Galician Verse

"Brief narratives," or medieval precursors to the modern short story, are compositions couched in the form of a tale of reasonable short length. Keller studies the structure of the pious brief narrative, including such works at the Cantigas de Santa Maria of Alfonso X and Gonzalo de Berceo's Milagros de Nuestra Senora, among others.
