Fair enough. This is usually true for a first work as well.

>>19002135
I agree. But one must not be too quick to dismiss based on a authors faults when the author makes faults which are so characteristic for people his age. Do you have any thoughts on the book itself?

>>19002123
Any specific examples that were the most striking to you?

>I don't see why this one in particular deserves multiple posts every single day on this subreddit.

>>19001974
what do you hate about the author?

>>19001980
why? in what way is it better? what did you dislike about this book?

ok, Lorca, is in the Wikipedia page or the Western Canon, maybe because he was gay in an age were it wasn't socially acceptable. But Quevedo? I didn't know that

he wasn't against medival books, but against idealism, and this includes the christfags and the chivalric fantastic novels like "Amadís de Gaula". He wouldn't be against the Celestina, 'The Book of Good Love' or Jorge Manrique's poetry

/lit/ might appreciate this quote as well:

>I have perceived that in all cases man must eventually lower, or at least shift, his conceit of attainable felicity; not placing it anywhere in the intellect or fancy; but in the wife, the heart, the bed, the table, the saddle, the fire-side, the country
