Publisher Description:
This study examines the cultural mechanisms in early modern Spain that led to the translation, imitation and selective adoption of the values embodied by the Italian Renaissance. The author outlines the sixteenth-century process of the creation of an expressive poetic language and the quest for literary models, while also tracing innovative methods of historical and scientific analysis in the early seventeenth-century.
