Abstract
- Francisco de Quevedo used in Gracias y desgracias del ojo del culo the paradox and the setting of the pseudo-praise to show his wit and an approach towards the laughable world through scatology. For many scholars, behind the joke and this show of wit, we can find other interpretations, including a satire of his society. Obviously, the scatology serves as a degrading instrument, and satirical topics of those times are present in this work, but it seems that the priority is the achievement of laughter. The search for other interpretations seems risky and perhaps the result of ideological prejudices about Quevedo, specially in the critics of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, temporally and contextually distant and possibly with a less permissive value system on this subject.
