Myth into Matter: Garcilaso de la Vega and the Found Object
Abstract
This essay examines Mary Barnard’s recent study on Garcilaso’s poetry and the so-called ‘material culture’ of the Spanish Golden Age. It does so by reflecting on the state of the discipline and by framing this book within a scholarly trend that in the last few years has provided new ways of looking at the European Renaissance.Keywords
