Francisco De Quevedo

Francisco De Quevedo (1580-1645)

Francisco Gmez de Quevedo y Santibez Villegas (Madrid, 14 September 1580 Villanueva de los Infantes, 8 September 1645) was a nobleman, politician and writer of the Baroque era. Along with his lifelong rival, Luis de Gngora, Quevedo was one of the most prominent Spanish poets of the age. His style is characterized by what was called conceptismo. This style existed in stark contrast to Gngoras culteranismo.
