Autoren-Porträt von Francisco De Quevedo
Francisco de Quevedo (1580-1645) was a towering figure of the Spanish Golden Age, a period that witnessed a flourishing of literature unmatched in Spain's history. Quevedo was a nobleman, a man of sharp wit and sharper tongue, whose literary output is characterized by a satirical and hyperbolic style. A master of conceptismo, his work is marked by concise and pointed wit, as well as an abundance of rhetorical figures and devices. His opus includes poetry, prose, and political writings, but it is 'The Visions of Dom Francisco de Quevedo Villegas' that has enshrined his name among the great satirists of world literature. This work is a series of visions in which Quevedo offers a scathing critique of the society of his time, rendering moral corruption with an acerbic and fantastical tone. Quevedo's prolific career spanned multiple genres, and his poetry alone traverses the sacred and the profane, highlighting his gravity and wit. His influence reaches deeply into Spanish literature, informing the work of subsequent writers and shaping the cultural landscape of the baroque period in Spain. Indeed, his legacy is palpable in the written word and in the very fabric of Spanish literary identity.
