| Summary |
"Libros de caballerías" by Ramón María Tenreiro is a literary compilation centered on chivalric romances, likely produced in the early 20th century. This work showcases tales of knights and valor, highlighting characters such as the valiant Amadís and his noble lineage. The topics explored involve themes of honor, love, and the quests of knighthood, appealing to those interested in classic heroism and medieval adventures. The opening of this compilation introduces the tale of Amadís through the story of the Doncel del Mar, a child discovered by the knight Gandales in a mysterious box floating in the sea. As he grows up under Gandales' care, the boy, marked by his noble descent, is destined for greatness. Early interactions hint at his future adventures with powerful figures, including King Lisuarte and the enchanting Oriana. This initial setting establishes a narrative steeped in the tradition of chivalric literature, where quests, prophecies, and romantic endeavors intertwine, setting the stage for the epic journeys that follow.
