Abstract

536
This article sets out to offer a reasoned review of the entire question of the years spent by Quevedo in Italy, with a view to sketching as reliably as possible an outline of his role in the service of the Duke of Osuna. To this end, the relevant existing bibliography on the subject is examined, the tense historical background to the events is reconstructed, the main elements concerned with Quevedo’s stay in both of the viceregal courts is recounted, and attention is given to those of his writings that bear witness to his role there. In this respect his correspondence during that period is of particular interest, most notably the correspondence that passed between him and the Duke of Osuna.
