Humor en las cartas privadas de emigrantes a Indias (1540-1616)
Keywords:
Humour, letters, emigrants, AmericaAbstract
This work traces, through the language, the presence of humoristic features in the private letters of immigrants to America during the 16th and 17th centuries. These mostly appear intermingled within the contents of letters that are not precisely the privileged vehicle for humour, since they usually tell us about the problems, tragedies and annoyance of the hard daily life of those women and those men. Our reading today finds humour, centuries later, in the reception of expressions, idioms, insults, or complaints.
