Abstract

These pages study the scarce but significant presence of Terence in Quevedo’s work. It is shown that Quevedo read the Roman poet and turned to his texts to find support for his own ideas. The attention we have devoted to these texts, belonging to five of the six comedies by Terence, highlights his interests, his way of working and some books that were part of Quevedo’s library, such as a copy of Terentius from the year 1560, signed by him.
