The research Amelia Peace , which two years ago found an autograph for Góngora at the National Historical Archive , has published the process in which Luis de Góngora declared 1597 the Inquisitor of Cordoba on charges of concubinage, a case that sheds light on the figure of the poet.
“The Góngora image is now completely distorted ; Needless to rebuild it with accurate information; his biography is a sum of jokes and conjecture; the last to be dealt with first hand offload Dámaso Alonso was half a century ago, and can not live off forever, “says Amelia Peace Efe.
Figure Poet is so distorted that “the enmity between Góngora and Quevedo is one of the most persistent canards of Spanish literature,” according to the researcher who has written several works “dismantling the myth and misrepresentations on which it is based.”
De Paz says “ Quevedo is a character absolutely irrelevant in the lives of Góngora ; Góngora instead meant a lot to Quevedo, who was twenty years younger than him and counted him an unattainable model in the poetic, as happened to most of the poets of that time at the wonder of the ‘ Solitudes . ‘”
“All hearsay” is the title that the research has been to extract 250 pages that has made the entire process, kept in a few thousand pages , which has been just added a brief prologue and a brief yet Epilogue to form a book that Professor Francisco Rico has said it is “required reading in universities and brothels.”
De Paz, now continuing his research on the life of poet files Córdoba, chose that title because these pages contain literal transcription process based oral statements of witnesses , and that says , “is one of the highlights of the book, hear, almost out loud, the language of the late sixteenth.”
Also because the whole process is based on a rumor and “the Most witnesses’ had heard ‘this or that’, so the inquisitor judge handling the process is putting notes to the statements he spends his secretary and, at some point, outside of them, makes your handwriting : “Everything is hearsay”
The trial Alonso Jiménez. Reinoso, who besides cleric inquisitor of Córdoba was , accused of concubinage, was long and gathered nearly 120 witness statements of Córdoba, Ecija, Seville and Granada, both for and against the accused.
Góngora testified against -the autograph gongorino De Paz said in 2012 it was a manuscript memorial against the poet Reinoso delivered the day you they called declarar- but according to the researcher, “is not there the thing: it seems that he, along with a sheriff of the Inquisition called Luis de Acebedo, was the promoter of the investigation against Reinoso.”
The poet and the inquisitor had been “good friends”, but blamed Góngora Reinoso the removal of his father as a real judge of the Inquisition in Cordoba , a position which, like so many, was hereditary in the time and to which the poet could have legitimately aspired .
As De Paz ‘Góngora thought Reinoso, with its shady dealings, had been inducing the relegation of his father, and decided to strike back; Reinoso knew well; mates were in the council of the Cathedral ; knew their weaknesses “
” Góngora joined with others who had cases against Reinoso, who was a man of character, and together they rose up against him the dust of concubinage.; it was not difficult to spread the rumor that dominated the circuits in Cordoba and Reinoso was a stranger; Góngora and was in person, touching keys on Madrid , who got him to investigate the Inquisition Reinoso; in short, was revenge » says De Paz.
The victims managed to take his Cordoba city Reinoso, who received him the colloquial language today called “kick-up” as it ended in Valladolid inquisitor, then place more importance Córdoba.
