Marca Tulia se llamaba una dueña: la vieja consejera en la poesía burlesca del Siglo de Oro

Abstract

The poetic motif of the abject old woman giving advice in love matters to young ladies appears in Propertius (IV, 5) and Ovid (I, 8), and was imitated by several Spanish authors such as Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, Francisco de Quevedo and Jacinto Alonso Maluenda. The study of these imitations and comparison between them allows analysis of the stylistic evolution of burlesque poetry from the 16th to the 17th century.
