Explanation:

Medieval literature has a series of features that define and distinguish it:

  Anonymous character: The author does not sign his work because he knows that it belongs to a collective. It does not seek to differentiate itself from others.

 Oral work: It was spread orally by the minstrels, since people could not read. This explains that there are few works that have been preserved.

   Work in verse: In the Middle Ages it was considered that the verse was what made a work literary.

  Imitation: The authors collected a popular tradition or a Latin text and recreated them. That is, the works were not original nor were they considered important.

    Didactism: The works, for the most part, had a didactic function: they transmitted Christian values and offered behavioral models.
