Abstract
Fray Vicent refers to his preaching through the simile of the fishing net. Preaching is, according to him, a kind of net, woven from authorities, exempla, similitudines, etc. Following this metaphor, in this paper we study some of the knots of this net: consolidated groups of similes that can be found repeatedly throughout his sermons. We think that these groups facilitate the development of such oratorical pieces and show us a construction technique that had been overshadowed by the attention given to other aspects of the Vicent Ferrer preaching.Format
