    Annotation:

    Taking into consideration Lope de Vega's corpus of hagiographical comedia, we value how the typical comicality of arte nuevo became compatible with that pious sense which was essential to hagiographical plays. We discuss the different roles played by festive laugh in a dramatic subgenre which intended to lead the audience to devotion. The aim of this article is to deepen into the strategies through which comedias de santos contributed to a double prospect, festive and pious.
