A study of narrative and ideological functions of the Moorish narrator in Don Quijote. It uses narratology and epistemology to argue that Cide Hamete represents key aspects of Arabic learning that are incorporated into Cervantes' work and affect the development of the modern novel. "Estudio breve y muy jugoso ... no puede negarse la sugestión y simpatía que despierta este concentrado librito en el ánimo del lector." -Alberto Sánchez, Anales Cervantinos.
