Aurora Egido: De la mano de Artemia

Literature, emblematics, mnemotecnis and art in the Golden Age.

Aurora Egido, distinguished Chair of Spanish Literature at the Universidad de Zaragoza, gathers together here a series of fundamental articles for the study of the connections between literature and art in the Golden Age. These brilliant pages succeed in transforming aspects previously deemed to be marginal by critics into key considerations for future research and for an understanding of the most intense period in Spanish culture.

Contents: I.- La letra de los emblemas. Primera noticia española de Alciato. II.- Fronteras entre emblemática y literatura. III.- Lugares e imágenes de la memoria en la literatura y en el arte. IV.- Mnemotecnia y religiosidad en el Nuevo Mundo. V.- El tejido garcilasista en la Égloga III. VI.- Las sierpes enlazadas en un soneto de Lope de Vega. VII.- Góngora ante el sepulcro de Garcilaso. VIII.- Retratos de los Reyes de Aragón, por Andrés de Uztarroz. IX.- Visajes de la pobreza en el Siglo de Oro. X.- A modo de epílogo: Sobre la invención del Barroco literario.

Letters, emblems and hieroglyphs, typologies and tropes, colors to regulate memory, symbolic conjuring and ciphered searches, concentration of meanings and expansion of the senses, ink and voice, pages and canvasses, games with mirrors, silent and threads of words weave in this book a profound perspective and a revitalizing panorama of the Spanish Golden Age.
