Este trabajo pretende analizar cómo se reflejan dos emociones básicas, la alegría y el placer, en una crónica del siglo XV, concretamente El Victorial de Gutierre Díaz de Games. Como se trata de una biografía caballeresca, en sus páginas se plasma una visión particular de las dos citadas emociones. Así, la crónica ofrece un elenco de aquellas circunstancias en las que se suponía que los caballeros estaban en situación de experimentar el placer y la alegría. Esas circunstancias van desde las fiestas cortesanas hasta las victorias en batallas, sin olvidar el amor y la amistad.
