Hermeneutics of the title in the Golden poetry: the textual transmission of the burlesque works of Góngora
Abstract
The study reflects on the function of the titles of the different genres (décima, ballad, sonnet, letrilla, etc.) and subgenres (satirical, burlesque) and, on a lower scale, of the epigraph in the poetry of the Golden Age. For Luis de Góngora, who never assigns titles nor, of course, epigraphs to these type of poems, the textual transmission of his work requires paratextuality.
Concepts such as name, predicable and universal, used to demonstrate the existence of an iconic figure which joins the title and the poem through a hidden indexical, external to the statement (the “clistic”), in manuscripts and printed poetical works by Góngora, mainly burlesque and satire, are revised.
