Disenso, argumentos y persuasión como nutrientes del debate en el Diálogo de la alegría del alma contra el temor de la muerte (Cuenca, 1612)

Two points of view are required at least to make possible the necessary debate in a controversy, opposing opinions that are usually formulated by two interlocutors. The literary dialogue seems a very suggestive and effective way to show both sides of the issue that generates controversy. The resources used in the Diálogo de la alegría del alma contra el temor de la muerte (Cuenca, 1612) in order to produce polemic, argument and persuasion by a talk of two interlocutors about the best way to die are analysed in this article.
