Digital Stylistics Applied to Golden Age Spanish Poetry
Is Fernando de Herrera Really a Transitional Poet between Renaissance and Baroque?
Abstract This paper applies Digital Stylistics methods to Golden Age Spanish poetry, one of the most important literary periods of Spanish literature, and to Fernando de Herrera’s poems, who has been considered a transitional writer between the Renaissance style of Garcilaso de la Vega and the Baroque of Luis de Góngora. The aim of this study is to analyze Herrera’s role in the stylistic evolution from Renaissance to Baroque and to verify if the posthumous edition of his poetry, Versos (1619), is more Baroque, as some critics have suggested. For this purpose, a stylometry technique (Zeta), different features (words and PoS n-grams) and parameters (PoS bigrams and trigrams) have been used. Results point to the transitional role of Herrera’s work in general, with the detection of a more Baroque component in Versos edition through some of the analyses.
Keywords: stylometry, poetry, Baroque
