During the Baroque period, Luis De GÓngora y Argote (1561–1627) wrote the first Spanish-language closeted literature. Some three hundred years later, the challenging originality of his closet verse, openly studied and appreciated by a cultured, intellectual elite, played a pivotal role in the development of homosexual literature in the early-twentieth-century avant-garde movements of Spain and Latin America. This essay will briefly explore how twentieth-century Mexican avant-garde writers expressed the closet using baroque models. The thesis is that the rhetorical strategies of obscuritas provided Góngora an ideal instrument for representing the closet, which in literature is defined as a symbolic space that allows writers to represent and readers to recognize homosexuality in a heterosexual context. The pertinent OED definition of closet as an adjective reads, “secret, covert, used esp. with reference to homosexuality” (“Closet”). This recognized use of obscuritas is validated further in the observations of the Peruvian colonial writer Espinosa Medrano, one of Góngora's seventeenth-century commentators, who epitomizes the consolidation of baroque aesthetics in Hispanic America by the criollo elite. The final chapter in this tour of the baroque closet will examine how the Mexican avant-garde became aware of obscuritas through Federico García Lorca's Gongorine lectures and poetry.

At the end of the middle eras, began in Spain an era of literary integration called it the (Golden era) Unlike political events which was prevalent there, Spain was from the side political lives he situation is stressed and internal divisions, but from the literary side She reached the peak of her relationship. The term Baroque refers to a movement of art, literature and culture, spread in Spain since the end of the sixteenth century until the end of the seventeenth century, In the seventeenth century began Literary productions from theater, novel, poetry and prose reach its grandeur, and there appeared prominent writers They knew in Spain and the world as well such as (Luba de Veca) and his style in theater and literary currents, Who followed his approach. The current study consists of two chapters: Chapter one refers to the beginning and prosperity and the end of baroque style in Spanish literature. The second chapter explains it operation evolution of the method (baroque) especially in lyric poetry of the baroque, We spoke in it about the most prominent figures in the field of poetry during the golden era.

Seventeenth-century literature in the Holy Roman Empire has rarely been discussed in general cultural histories about the European Baroque. The dramatic achievements of Shakespeare, Calderon, and Corneille, the inimitable poetry of the Metaphysicals and Marino and the mischievous adventures of the Spanish picaro have long overshadowed the literary accomplishments of the German Baroque. Even today many scholars are still content to dismiss the German seventeenth century as derivative while, in the opposite camp, loyal Germanists currently defend its uniqueness. As is generally known, literary developments in the Empire were slowed by a number of unfortunate circumstances. Geographical, confessional, and linguistic disunity strongly contributed to the parochialism of German Baroque letters. Local literary societies were widely scattered throughout the Empire from Silesia to the Rhine and communication between them was greatly hampered. The lack of a main cultural center similar to the artistic hubs of Paris or London further isolated the writers from each other. In addition, confessional differences not only segregated Catholic and Protestant poets, but also resulted in the simultaneous development of a Batoque Latin and German literature.

Le présent travail propose la première édition critique, annotée et commentée, de Trabajos del vicio (Madrid, 1680) écrite, comme il est démontré, par le prédicateur et frère augustin Simón de Castelblanco. Par une approche ecdotique — en lien avec les deux disciplines complémentaires que sont la bibliographie documentaire et la critique textuelle —, il a été possible de clarifier l'histoire du texte et d‘identifier son véritable auteur. La phase de la recensio révèle qu'il existe une édition de l‘œuvre de 1680 et une « émission » de 1684 qui présente deux états d‘édition. Ces émissions sont le produit de la stratégie commerciale orchestrée par l'éditeur Lorenzo García et le libraire Juan Fernández pour remédier à l'échec financier qu'a dû représenter la commercialisation de l'œuvre. Le texte critique, accompagné d'un important appareil de notes, a été rigoureusement établi à partir de l'exemplaire numérisé du BDH (R-8617) de l’editio princeps. Compte tenu de la rareté des ouvrages philologiques sur l'auteur et l'œuvre, l'étude préliminaire a mobilisé différentes sources documentaires telles que des catalogues biobibliographiques ou des recueils sur les frères augustins pour traiter en profondeur les aspects liés à la biographie et à l'œuvre de Simón de Castelblanco. En outre, par l‘étude de la réception de l‘œuvre et l‘analyse comparative avec d‘autres romans baroques, Trabajos del vicio s‘inscrit dans le corpus du « long roman » du dernier quart du XVIIe siècle, caractérisé par une littérature représentative d‘une morale ascétique forte
This work proposes the first critical edition, with annotations and introductory study, of Trabajos del vicio, afanes del amor vicioso (Madrid, 1680), written, as well demonstrated, by the Augustinian friar and preacher Simon de Castelblanco. Following ecdotic procedures - in connection with two complementary disciplines such as material bibliography and textual criticism - it has been possible to clarify the history of the text and prove its true author. The phase of the recensio reveals the existence of an edition of 1680, and an issue of 1684, which presents two states of edition. The issue is the product of the commercial strategy orchestrated by the printer-publisher Lorenzo García and the bookseller Juan Fernández with the intention of overcoming the lucrative failure that the commercialization of the novel must have entailed. The critical text, accompanied by an extensive annotation apparatus, has been rigorously fixed from the digitized copy of the BDH (R-8617), after verifying the equality of the rest of the copies. Given the scarcity of philological studies on the author and the novel, the preliminary study has used different documentary sources such as bio-bibliographic sourcebooks and compendia on Augustinian friars, dealing in depth with aspects related to the biography and work of Simon de Castelblanco. Likewise, through the perspective of the reception studies and the comparative analysis with other contemporary novels, Trabajos del vicio is framed within the corpus of the ―long novelǁ of the last quarter of the 17th century, characterized by an exemplary literature of strong ascetic morality

Cette thèse présente une édition philologique et annotée du roman peu connu, écrit et publié par le maître d’escrime de Philippe IV, Luis Pacheco de Narváez, dont le titre est Historia ejemplar de las dos constantes mujeres españolas, imprimé pour la première fois à Madrid par l’Imprenta del Reino l’année 1635. Le travail est divisé en cinq chapitres, puisque en plus de celui consacré à l’édition du roman (chap. V), qui établit un texte annoté basé sur les deux seules éditions connues (Madrid, 1635 et Séville, 1744) avec son catalogue de variantes, quatre autres lui servent de contexte. Ainsi, nous présentons une biographie de Pacheco de Narváez (Baeza, 1560-Madrid, 1640), rédigée autour de la documentation conservée, qui est accompagnée par une liste de références littéraires d’époque qui évoquent sa figure et son œuvre, et une épigraphe qui se veut une réflexion scientifique sur ses relations avec Francisco de Quevedo (chap. I); une histoire du texte qui étudie la date de composition du roman, la première édition et le moment compliqué pour publier des romans dans ces années à cause de la censure (1625-1635), d’un projet de publication non abouti et de la seconde édition, ainsi que la trajectoire critique du roman et l’absence d’éditions ultérieures (chap. II); une étude de nature taxonomique (bien que l’accent soit mis aussi sur la moralité présente dans le roman) qui implique son rattachement, en dépit de son extension, au genre du roman «courtois» (chap. III); et enfin un chapitre dédié au contexte littéraire, divisé en deux grands blocs: l’un consacré aux sources et aux matériaux que l’auteur a utilisés pour donner forme au roman, et un autre qui étudie, à titre d’exemple, l’un des sujets présent dans ce dérnier et qui était aussi très courant dans la littérature de l’époque: la descriptio tempestatis. Cette dernière partie est complétée par un appendice qui analyse le sujet de la tempête dans la Jerusalén conquistada (1609) de Lope de Vega (chap. IV)
This thesis present a critical edition of the non-well known novel written and published by the fencing master of Philip IV, Luis Pacheco de Narváez, whose title is Historia ejemplar de las dos constants mujeres españolas, printed for the first time in Madrid by the Imprenta del Reino the year 1635. The work is divided into five chapters. In addition to the section dedicated to the edition of the novel (ch. V), which establishes an annotated text based on the only two known editions (Madrid, 1635 and Seville, 1744) with her list of variants, another four serve as context to it. Thus, we present a biography of Pacheco de Narváez (Baeza, 1560-Madrid, 1640), drafted in accordance with the preserved documentation, which is complemented by a literary list of references of this period about the figure and the work of the author, and an epigraph that wants to be a scientific consideration on his relations with Francisco de Quevedo (ch. I); a history of the text that studies the date of composition, the first edition and the complicated situation to publish novels in these years due to censorship (1625-1635), an aborted publication project and the second edition, as well as the critical trajectory of the novel and the absence of later editions (ch. II); a taxonomic study (although emphasis is placed on the morality present in the story) that implies its attachment to the genre of the so-called “courtly novel” (ch. III); and finally a chapter dedicated to the literary context, divided in two large parts: one dedicated to the sources and materials that the author could use to form the novel, and another that studies, by way of example, one of the literary topics present in the text and in the literature of the time: the descriptio tempestatis. This last part complements, as addition, with a study of the subject of the storm in the Jerusalen conquistada (1609) by Lope de Vega (ch. IV)
El objeto de esta tesis es presentar una edición filológica y anotada de la poco conocida novela escrita y publicada por el maestro de esgrima del monarca Felipe IV, Luis Pacheco de Narváez, cuyo título es Historia ejemplar de las dos constantes mujeres españolas, impresa por vez primera en Madrid por la Imprenta del Reino el año de 1635. El trabajo se divide en cinco capítulos, pues además del específico dedicado a la edición de la obra (Cap. V), que establece un texto anotado sobre la base de las dos únicas ediciones conocidas (Madrid, 1635 y Sevilla, 1744) junto con su aparato de variantes, otros cuatro sirven de contexto a la misma. Así, presentamos una nueva y completa biografía de Luis Pacheco de Narváez (Baeza, ha. 1560-Madrid, 1640), redactada en torno a la documentación conservada, que se complementa con un importante elenco de las menciones literarias de época que hacen referencia a la figura y la obra del autor, y un epígrafe que quiere ser una reflexión científica sobre sus relaciones con el escritor Francisco de Quevedo (Cap. I); una historia del texto que estudia la fecha de composición de la obra, la primera edición madrileña de 1635 y la complicada tesitura para publicar novelas en estos años a causa de la censura imperante (1625-1635), un proyecto de publicación abortado y la segunda edición sevillana de 1744, así como la trayectoria crítica de la novela y la inexistencia de ediciones posteriores (Cap. II); un estudio de carácter taxonómico (aunque se haga hincapié en la moralidad presente en el relato) que supone su adscripción al género, pese a su extensión, de la denominada como novela «cortesana», bien que se constate y analice también la presencia de elementos de otros géneros como la novela bizantina, caballeresca, etc. (Cap. III); y por último un capítulo dedicado al contexto literario, dividido a su vez en dos grandes bloques: uno dedicado a las fuentes y materiales que pudo utilizar el autor para conformar la novela, y otro que estudia, a manera de ejemplo, uno de los tópicos literarios presentes en la misma y en la literatura de la época: la descriptio tempestatis. Este último bloque se complementa, en tanto que apéndice, con un estudio del tema de la tormenta en el libro VII de La Jerusalén conquistada (1609) de Félix Lope de Vega (Cap. IV). Se cierra la tesis con el consabido apartado bibliográfico

Este artículo ofrece un comentario textual de El amar su propia muerte, comedia en tres actos de Juan de Espinosa Medrano, en relación tanto con sus modelos dramáticos peninsulares como con sus preocupaciones particulares como intelectual peruano consciente de su posición secundaria frente a la centralidad cultural española. Siguiendo las prácticas de la imitatio barroca, Espinosa Medrano logró combinar los múltiples convenciones y subgéneros de la comedia nueva, no solo demostrando su asimilación totalizadora de sus modelos sino también poniendo en tela de juicio sus respectivas estructuras lógicas. El resultado es una alegoría del ingenio quese vincula al conjunto de la obra del autor, en particular el celebrado Apologético en favor de Góngora, en el que revindica la intelectualidad criolla. -- This article offers a close reading of Juan de Espinosa Medrano’s three-act play El amar su propia muerte in relation both to the author’s theatricalmodels in Spain and to his particular preoccupations as a Peruvian intellectual aware of his secondary position vis-à-vis Spanish cultural centrality. Following the practices of baroque imitatio, Espinosa Medrano succeeded in bringing together the multiple conventions and subgenres of the comedia nueva in such a way that he not only demonstrated a totalizing assimilation of his models but also interrogated their underlying logical structures. The result is an allegory of ingeniousness linked to the author’s overall project, made more explicit in such works has his famous Apologético en favor de Góngora, of Creole intellectual vindication.

Bances Candamo se sitúa en un punto de inflexión clave para la historia de la literatura y del teatro, entre la poética barroca y la neoclásica. El análisis de la música en sus comedias permite observar desde una óptica privilegiada la evolución de algunos recursos acústicos que venían usándose en el Siglo de Oro y que a finales del siglo XVII han llegado a un punto de barroquismo hiperbólico que busca el colapso del oído. En las comedias de Bances vemos cómo se transforma lo heredado y cómo se anuncian nuevas inquietudes, sobre todo las provenientes de la corte del Rey Sol, que se implantarán definitivamente con Felipe V, pero que ya tuvieron antecedentes en esa década de regencia de María Luisa de Orleáns, primera esposa de Carlos II, época coincidente con el cargo de dramaturgo real de Bances Candamo. Esta tesis profundiza sobre la dramaturgia del postrer gran hombre de teatro del Siglo de Oro, autor además de la última preceptiva dramática áurea. Este discípulo de Calderón, que extrema el ingrediente musical tanto en cantidad como en recursos estéticos, es uno de los protagonistas de la controversia sobre la licitud de las comedias, y su Teatro de los teatros es un documento excepcional en este sentido. A partir de este tratado y de sus comedias, este estudio analiza la música vocal, la música instrumental y los bailes dramáticos desde un punto de vista totalmente original, hecho que permite revisar las categorías clásicas y arrojar luz sobre procedimientos poético-musicales en los que hasta ahora la crítica filológica y musicológica no había reparado, ni a propósito de Bances, ni a propósito de ningún otro dramaturgo del Siglo de Oro, a los que pueden aplicarse muchas de las propuestas de esta tesis.
Bances Candamo is to be found at a key inflection point for the history of literature and drama, between the baroque and the neoclassical poetry periods. The analysis of the music in his plays allows us to observe, from a privileged point of view, the evolution of some of the acoustic techniques that were being used during the Spanish Golden Age, and which by the end of the XVIIth Century had reached a point at which hyperbolic baroque style sought the collapse of the ear. In Bances' plays we can notice how the legacy is transformed and how the new concerns present themselves, especially those coming from the court of the Sun King, which will be permanently established during the kingdom of Philip V. It is important to note that these already had its antecedents during the regency of Marie Louise of Orléans, Charles II's first wife, coinciding with Bances Candamo's status as royal playwright. This doctoral thesis delves on the drama of the ultimate playwright of the Spanish Golden Age Theatre, also author of the last essay on dramatic theory. Being one of Calderón de la Barca's disciples, he takes the musical ingredient to the limit both in terms of quantity and of aesthetic means, and it is one of the main figures of the controversy over the morality of the theatre. His Teatro de los teatros is an outstanding piece of evidence on this respect. From this essay and his comedias, this thesis analyses the vocal music, the instrumental music and the dramatic dances from an innovative perspective, which allows us to revisit the classic categories and shed some light on the poetic-musical methods that had been forgotten by the philological and musicological criticism at this time, not concerning Bances nor any other playwright of the Spanish Golden Age to whom many aspects of this thesis apply.

The present study examines the figure of Mary Magdalene in the poetry of Lope de Vega and Richard Crashaw. I propose that while setting Mary Magdalene as the perfect example to convert, both authors could also express their conversion through the composition of two different poems: “Las Lágrimas de la Magdalena” by Lope de Vega and “Saint Mary Magdalene or, The Weeper” by Richard Crashaw. Each poem is centered on the idea of Mary Magdalene’s copious tears as the performative mark of her repentance which will effect her conversion. These two conversions are placed within two European literary traditions, Spain and England; as well as two different processes: on the one hand, Lope de Vega would go from a licentious life in his early years to becoming a priest at the end of his life, thus, devoting his life to religion. On the other hand, Richard Crashaw’s conversion would take place in between two conflicting religious beliefs, i.e., his transition from Protestantism to Catholicism. The other main goal of this work is studying these poems through the Baroque movement developed at the beginning of the seventeenth century. Hence, Lope de Vega’s poem is full of Baroque characteristics typical of the Spanish conceptism despite his reluctance consider his poetry Baroque. Crashaw, on his side, presents a poem which differs from the literary production in England in the first part of the seventeenth century. His Baroque sensibility would be, accordingly, influenced by his readings of the Spanish Golden Age authors. Therefore, anomaly, exaggeration, tempus fugit, conceptism, contradiction, paradox, and binary oppositions are Baroque characteristics both authors have in common in regard to their own particular description of both Mary Magdalene’s biblical stories and tears. Lastly, both poems will lead us to draw parallels with the Song of Songs in terms of spiritual conversation, and feminine identification.

This essay deals with an aspect of the formation process of the image of the Spanish Baroque theatre in France as an irregular and chaotic aesthetic form, which was also considered inferior with respect to the French classical model. In this theoretical construction, Lope de Vega embodies all of the Spanish theatre's flaws and, more generally, Hispanic literature's ones, in turn conceived as an expression of the Spanish nation’s spirit. This process of elaborating an image of an author at the service of the invention of a national stereotype is possible thanks to the early reception of some prose works by Lope (La Arcadia, El peregrino en su patria) which are enjoying a widespread diffusion in their translations. In a context marked by controversy surrounding the tragi-comédie, assimilated by his detractors to a simple theatrical deformation of novelistic material, Lope de Vega assumes the function of representative of a literature considered extraneous to any rule and to the separation between literary genres.

Following Latin America’s incorporation into the Spanish empire, myths rooted in cultural syncretism arose, which later became instruments for the conquest, oppression and transculturation of the indigenous peoples. This article focuses on the work of writers who, through the re-examining of said myths, sought to capture the essence of ‘Americanity’ without losing their universal sense. These myths are explored through the tone they acquired in Baroque literature, with a later focus on the sociocultural ‘myth’ associated with drug trafficking. Our findings are based on myth as an original principle may be opened a poetic interpretation.
