MONTANER FRUTOS, Alberto. Tal es la su auze: El héroe afortunado del Cantar de mio Cid. Olivar [online]. 2007, vol.8, n.10, pp.89-105. ISSN 1852-4478.

The main character of Cantar de mio Cid is a moderate hero, but also a lucky one, gifted with auze or good fortune and "born at a lucky hour". His fortune is innate, but is also the result of his prudence. The joining of equilibrium and boldness allows the Cid to keep up his auze. In addition, the optimism of the lucky hero lends a strong dynamism to the whole epic poem.

Keywords : Cantar de Mio Cid; Epic heroe; Moderation; Good luck; Boldness.
