Η περιπετειώδης και ερωτική μυθιστορία του Πέτρου και της Μαργαριτούλας (σερ Πέρου(Ε)μπέριου(Ι)μπέριου και Μαργαρόνας) είναι ένα δημοφιλέστατο υστερομεσαιωνικό και αναγεννησιακό μεσογειακό λογοτέχνημα που, μέσω των δυτικοευρωπαϊκών εκδοχών του, γοήτευσε ευρωπαϊκούς λαούς, λογίους μα και καλλιτέχνες ώς και τον 20ό αιώνα (Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Ludwig Tieck, Brahms). Πρωταγωνιστές του δύο πανέμορφοι, γενναιότατοι, μορφωμένοι, χαρισματικοί και, προπαντός, ατίθασοι, τολμηροί, εφευρετικοί και αντισυμβατικοί, στην αρχή, νεαροί ηγεμονόπαιδες, που ωριμάζουν μέσα από συνεχόμενες δοκιμασίες της ξεροκεφαλιάς όσο και της Τύχης/Μοίρας τους, και στο τέλος θριαμβεύουν χάρη στην αισθηματική σταθερότητα, την ευσέβεια, τα καλά έργα τους μα και τη θεία Χάρη.
