Sobre un elogio imperial tardío: José de Cobaleda y Aguilar y el Panegírico a Carlos V

Abstract

This article proposes a critical re-evaluation of the main poem of the poet of Loja José de Cobaleda y Aguilar, the Panegírico a Carlos V, datable in the years 1640-1650, and very marked by the influence of Góngora. It highlights some of the variations between the different textual testimonies preserved and, leaving a thorough stylistic analysis for another occasion, examines the general structure of the poem, which is inspired by previous encomiastic works dedicated to the figure of the Emperor. Finally, it shows the strong link between Cobaleda and two eminent supporters of Góngora in Andalusia, García de Salcedo Coronel and Martín de Angulo y Pulgar.
