Abstract

This article aims to bring out how the historic material invested in the text takes an active part in the semiotic production’s dynamic process. In order to illustrate this theoretical proposition, Edmond Cros analyzes an extract from Mateo alemán's picaresque novel Guzmán de Alfarache, edited between 1599 and 1604.
