Just as much as the pairing of Sancho Panza and Alonso Quijano, the bond between Scipion and Berganza possesses a unique iconic power rooted in the socio-historical world around them. In this sense, the present scholarly work aims to ultimately understand the short story commonly known as “The Dialogue of the Dogs.” To this end, this issue of the journal seeks to understand what reasons led Cervantes to elevate two animals—two dogs—to the status of protagonists in his twelfth exemplary novel. We will thus ask whether the famous “Dialogue” is indeed a picaresque tale, and how its historical and parodic density should be interpreted. Should we not, in short, examine the various aspects of this “dream” of Cervantes’s, the aspects that probably make it a rigorously literary text?
