Description
Summary:This essay deals with the circulation and readership of Renaissance European Literature in the Peruvian Viceroyalty during the XVIth and XVIIth centuries. It proposes the historical framework and context in which a cultivated readership developed. It argues that this cultural phenomenon began in the second half of the sixteenth century, evident in the reception of such literary works by the members of the so called "Academia Antártica" in Lima. La circulación y consumo de la literatura del Renacimiento europeo en el virreinato peruano en los siglos XVI y XVII es el tema de mi ensayo. Propone el contexto histórico que hizo posible la constitución de un público lector en la segunda mitad del siglo XVI y la recepción de la literatura renacentista entre los miembros de la Academia Antártica.
