AB This paper makes an effort to show that the irony used by Cervantes in his novel El Quijote was also used by Dickens when he wrote Bleak House. So, we study the narrators first. It is possible that Dickens could remember the Spanish novel because both stories are described by two narrators and they play with an imaginary time. They make use of symbols and they employ metaphors and allegories. Also, they show the characters with a great sense of humour. Then, we compare the main characters and we find that some of them dialogue with reiteration and use metaphors and allegories.Finally, we can see that Cervantes and Dickens make use of irony to satirize their respective ages, and they both criticize the institutions and the societies in Spain and in England.
