Garcilaso de la Vega (ca. 1501–36), a Castilian nobleman and soldier at the court of Charles V, lived a short but glamorous life. As the first poet to make the Italian Renaissance lyric style at home in Spanish, he is credited with beginning the golden age of Spanish poetry. Known for his sonnets and pastorals, gracefully depicting beauty and love while soberly accepting their passing, he is shown here also as a calm student of love’s psychology and a critic of the savagery of war.
This bilingual volume is the first in nearly two hundred years to fully represent Garcilaso for an Anglophone readership. In facing-page translations that capture the music and skill of Garcilaso’s verse, John-Dent Young presents the sonnets, songs, elegies, and eclogues that came to influence generations of poets, including San Juan de la Cruz, Luis de Leon, Cervantes, and Góngora. The Selected Poems of Garcilaso de la Vega will help to explain to the English-speaking public this poet’s preeminence in the pantheon of Spanish letters.

Los porteros no po dian pasar de la segunda puerta, so pena de la vida, aunque se lo man dasen de allá dentro; ni nadie lo podía mandar so la misma pena.

El soneto era ya un medio de expresión poética en el siglo XIV, donde destacan particularmente los sonetos escritos por Dante Alighieri. En español, el primer intento del que se tiene conocimiento en cuanto al uso del soneto, es el realizado por Iñigo López de Mendoza, aunque posteriormente también destacaron otros grandes como Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, Hernando de Acuña, Fernando de Herrera y Gutierre de Cetina entre otros. Sin embargo, en esta colección, se han incluido a aquellos autores barrocos que son, tal vez, los más representativos del lllamado Siglo de Oro.
