In this study the dramatic and novelistic aspects of Galaico-Portuguese poetry are analysed. We point out the dramatic tendency of the cantigas showing that the troubadours and jougleurs grouped together a certain number of cantigas with a dramatic purpose. This is demonstrated by the 12 cantigas with which Lopo L(')ias has created a satirical play, which we have entitled Os Zevroes, and which will be studied in the last chapter of this study. / Secondly, the narrative and thematic structures of some 1.150 love songs are analysed. In this case, the cantigas de amigo and the cantigas de amor are seen by us as if they had been written by only one author, who had proposed to create with them a complex sentimental plot in dialogue. / In order to prove the existence of a sentimental narrative romance in the Cancioneiros, the cantigas de amigo and the cantigas de amor have been classified into three categories: (a) third-person cantigas, in which the poet describes what the young girl (Amiga) does and says; (b) polyphonic cantigas, in which the poet dialogues with a female character (the pastourelle represents a particular kind of polyphony) and (c) sentimental cantigas, in which the poet disappears altogether, leaving way for the archetypal characters (the Amiga, the Amigo, the Mother, the Go-Between, etc) to express themselves freely, enabling us to reconstruct a dramatic-narrative romance. The analysis of this romance is based upon the formal and thematic particularities of the sentimental cantigas. / The sentimental cantigas, in monologue or dialogue form, are open utterances. They are mutually complementary and they are spoken by archetypal characters, always denominated in the same manner, but who lack a proper name, who communicate among themselves, but are not described by the poet. These characters are "voices" that have been grouped together in this study in a causal and chronological order, so as to define the theme and the plot of the archetypal romance of the Cancioneiros. / The narrative structure of the archetypal romance can be appreciated in the 374 cantigas de amor and de amigo which are found in the Appendix to this study, titled "Narrative anthology of Galaico-Portuguese love poetry".
