Abstract

AbstractMany of the sonnets that Luis de Gongora wrote in praise of his patrons exhibit a preoccupation with different types of spaces and places. Taking into account Michel Foucault's notion of heterotopia, Michel de Certeau's categories of lieu and espace, and Thomas Mitchell's theories of landscape, this essay considers how poems dedicated to powerful noblemen like the Conde de Salinas, the Marqués de Ayamonte and the Conde de Lemos reveal Gongora's attitudes toward patronage, power and imperial endeavors.
