Abstract
AbstractThis study aims to analyze the silva by Quevedo “Roma antigua y moderna” as a poetic piece. The poem will be explored verse by verse, paying attention to the brusque thematic shifts and stylistic devices concluding with the claim that the main subject—that is, the comparison between Imperial Rome, its past decadence and its resurgence as a spiritual power by means of the Papacy—is a rhetorical frame within which different secondary subjects appear which have more literary importance than the dominant idea.
