Benavente was praised by Lope de Vega in his work Laurel de Apolo, by Juan Perez de Montalban in his work Para todos, and by Tirso de Molina in his work Cigarrales de Toledo. he had a great satirical genius and talent for fine observation that made of him a predecessor of the Costumbrismo of the nineteenth century. At the same time he was the first to write interludes in verse with sung parts, a custom that later was popularized. In 1645, the first anthology of his works was published, under the title of Jocoseria, approved by Velez de Guevara and that gathers fourty-eight pieces. It is believed that he wrote around the 900 brief dramatic pieces, including praises and comic ballads, the majority have been lost or have no assigned author. Los muertos vivos served as an argument against Francisco Bernardo de Quiros for his extreme beliefs. Benavente fue halagado por Lope de Vega en su Laurel de Apolo, por Juan Perez de Montalban en su Para todos y por Tirso de Molina en sus Cigarrales de Toledo. Tuvo un gran genio satirico y dotes de fino observador que hacen de el un predecesor del costumbrismo decimononico. Asimismo fue el primero en escribir entremeses en verso con partes cantadas, costumbre que luego se generalizo. En 1645 fue publicada la primera antologia de sus obras, bajo el titulo de Jocoseria, aprobada por Velez de Guevara y que recoge cuarenta y ocho piezas. Se cree que escribio alrededor de novecientas piezas dramaticas breves, incluyendo loas y jacaras, la mayoria se han perdido o no tienen asignadas autor. Los muertos vivos sirvieron de argumento a Francisco Bernardo de Quiros para su entremes del mismo titulo.
