1645 Argote Baroque Cordoba Dynasty Gongora Luis Lyric Siglo Volume
EDITORS COMMENTS
This cover image showcases the second volume of the works of Don Luis de Góngora y Argote (1561-1627), a renowned Spanish Baroque lyric poet from the 16th and 17th centuries. Born in Cordoba, Spain, during the Habsburg Dynasty, Góngora is considered a key figure in the literary movement known as Culteranismo, which emphasized the use of elaborate language and complex metaphors. The image, an engraving from the 17th century, features a golden, ornate border adorned with intricate designs, reflecting the opulence and sophistication of the Baroque period. The title, "Works of Don Luis de Góngora Volume II," is prominently displayed in elegant script, with the subtitle, "Published in Madrid, 1645," indicating the date of publication during the modern age. Góngora's influence on Spanish literature is evident in the development of the Gongorism style, which continued to shape literary trends well into the 18th century. This beautiful cover serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable writer and his contributions to the literary world.
