Hardback. In 1492, the Spanish humanist Antonio de Nebrija proclaimed that "language has always been the companion of empire." Taking as his touchstone a suggestive sonnet that Garcilaso de la Vega wrote in 1535, this work examines how the companionship of language and empire played itself out more generally in the "new poetry" of 16th-century Europe. Num Pages: 144 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: 2ADS; DSBD; DSC. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 16. Weight in Grams: 358.
