The poetic image of Granada in the Spanish baroque poetry

Abstract

Granada’s literary discourse presents images that change over time and under the perspectives of different authors. This research will focus on the poetic images that occur in the Spanish Baroque, particularly in authors like Luis de Góngora, Agustín de Rojas, Pedro Soto de Rojas, Lope de Vega or Calderón de la Barca. The imagery that these poets create born in the Middle Ages and continue in the twentieth century. The purpose is to analyze the reading and literary construction that baroque poets have made of the city as well as the modification or removal of these literary topics over time.
