The erudition in Vera: imitation or plagiarism?

Abstract

This article highlights the importance that Fernando de Vera y Mendoza gives the Greek and Latin authors in the Panegírico por la poesía (1627), although most of these classical quotes are in miscellanies and polianteas, and other works which are the true primary sources for Fernando de Vera who don´t quote these sources in his book notes because he doesn´t want anybody to know where he got this information from.
