It is a veritable jewel of late medieval European literature and of narrative in the Crown of Aragon in particular. Curial shares a range of features - realism, humanity, believable deeds of chivalry, historical background, allusions to everyday life, elements of humour and parody, variation between literary and popular language - with contemporary French chivalric narratives, and with the Valencian Joanot Martorell's Tirant lo Blanc.
