Abstract
In order to comprehend the merging of the burlesque element and the excessive violence in Titus Andronicus, the play must be analysed from a comparative perspective within the frame of its literary context. This article deals with the comic elements that the characterization of Aaron introduces, in the light of the dramatic construction of characters that appear in plays drawing on the tradition of the morality plays, and in plays that combine the tradition of the Moor and the Vice.
