Un poeta a las puertas del Parnaso: Diego Félix de Quijada y RiquelmeA Poet at the Gates of the Parnassus: Diego Félix de Quijada y Riquelme

Abstract

Abstract Diego Felix de Quijada y Riquelme is a barely known Sevillian poet who belongs to the Spanish Golden Age and he is the author of a collection of love poems entitled Soliadas. This ill-fated poet achieved a promising position in the Spanish literary scene of the early 17th century thanks to the support of Juan de Arguijo and Lope de Vega and his participation in literary jousts. The preserved testimonies of his relationship with Arguijo and Lope are the primary sources for the reconstruction of the failed editorial process of his only work.
