Resumen

Este artículo explora la convergencia de los géneros de la novela de caballerías y la picaresca a través del análisis de la obra en prosa del escritor y librero londinense Francis Kirkman (1632-c.1680), traductor al inglés del libro sexto del ciclo de Amadís, continuador de Belianís de Grecia y de The English Rogue, autor de la biografía de la impostora Mary Carleton, The Counterfeit Lady Unveiled, y de la suya propia, The Unlucky Citizen. Tomando la obra en prosa de Kirkman a modo de estudio de caso, particularmente su narrativa autobiográfica, se estudia cómo los géneros de las novelas de caballerías y la picaresca terminan entremezclándose en la literatura inglesa del siglo XVII.
