AZUELA, María Cristina. La representación literaria de la transmisión oral: El caso de la nouvelle medieval. Acta poét [online]. 2005, vol.26, n.1-2, pp.155-179. ISSN 2448-735X.

Nouvelles can be characterized as short stories belonging to a story-collection. In general, there is a narrative frame where several narrators tell these stories. Literary representation of oral activity is thus a main issue of this genre, not only in the narrative frame, but also within each story. Narrative authentication relies largely on speech, as narrators pretend to report only what they have heard. Nevertheless, in the nouvelles words are uttered mainly to deceive. This raises questions on the uncertainty not only of oral utterances but also of literary discourse itself.
