Abstract

Abstract Richard Crashaw is known for having experienced heavy European influence due to his study of different European languages and his exile to Italy. In this paper, I bring Crashaw closer to the Spanish Baroque drawing parallels with Lope de Vega in their depictions of Mary Magdalene in the poems “Las lágrimas de la Magdalena” and “The Weeper.” His southern European literary influences and passions might lead us to consider him as a Spanish-Italian poet who happened to write in the English language.
