Abstract
Quevedo fue un importante escritor de literatura lucianesca en el siglo
xvii, un género con un propósito satírico-moral enfocado hacia la denuncia de alcance
social y político. Escribió tres obras adscritas a esta modalidad narrativa: Sueños y Discursos (1627), Discurso de todos los diablos (1628), y La Fortuna con seso y la Hora de todos
(1650). El objetivo del presente artículo es estudiar la presencia de la agudeza, en sus
distintas modalidades, en la segunda de las obras mencionadas, en relación con los distintos tipos de personajes, los temas y el posible objetivo del autor. Me centraré tanto en
las agudezas conceptuales como en las verbales, teniendo en cuenta que ambas se unen
inextricablemente, y que lo frecuente en Quevedo es la presencia de la agudeza mixta
