Poetry, Ceremony and Celebration in The Consolatoria To The Countess Of Castro By Gómez Manrique
Keywords:
lyric poetry, cancioneros, politics, ideology, stoicism, asceticismAbstract
The «Consolatoria a la Condesa de Castro « by Gómez Manrique has been interpreted as the use of the contemptu mundi and of the Senequist doctrine to console the poet’s sister, whose husband’s family had lost their property during the civil wars. The analysis of some aspects of its content and moment of composition suggests quite the opposite: that the author, behind this appearance, was actually encouraging or celebrating the upcoming return of such property, applying the moral principles involved in the service of the political and personal interests of his family.
