Within Spain a plethora of periodicals and anthologies from 1845 onward bore titles allusive to flowers and gardens, while a number of Spanish women published under floral pseudonyms or represented themselves and each other as flowers. Floral symbolism, however, not only gave female authors license to write within sanctioned codes that identified femininity with nature rather than culture. Importantly, their reworking of floristic imagery allowed them to refashion conventional, socio-cultural parameters, express their subjectivity, affirm creative agency and denounce socio-political ills.

Notes1 Italo Calvino, Colección de Arena, trad. Aurora Bernárdez (Madrid: Ediciones Siruela, 1984 [1ª ed. en italiano 1984]), 17.2 De acuerdo con Ximena Soruco, la categoría racial y cultural de ‘cholo o chola’ en Bolivia surge entre los los siglos XIX y XX como una cultura ‘intermedia’, ‘ilegible’ que ‘nunca se estabiliza’ y que por tanto constituye ‘un nosotros colectivo’ pasajero, fluido, móvil, que ‘emplea la propia ambigüedad del término cholo para mantener sus conexiones con ambos mundos [el indígena y el mestizo]’. Ver Ximena Soruco Sologuren, La ciudad de los cholos: mestizaje y colonialidad en Bolivia, siglos XIX y XX (La Paz: Programa de Investigación Estratégica en Bolivia/Lima: Instituto Francés de Estudios Andinos, 2011), 29. Para Soruco, por sus ‘patrones alternativos de ascenso social’, desde inicios del siglo XX la cultura chola ha desafiado al poder y economía criolla y sus propias visiones de ‘progreso y nación’ (29).3 Las fotografías consultadas fueron utilizadas para la investigación del libro: María Lagos & Emilse Escobar, Nos hemos forjado así: al rojo vivo y a puro golpe.

While not pretending to discover or disclose new revelations, it regards anew the historiography of the reception by both these poets of Petrarchism, a cultural project that has by now entered the mythology of Spanish poetry. I reflect on earlier Spanish literary histories, rereading their texts alongside late twentieth-century theories of imitation and recent critical and theoretical studies of early modern poetic production to sketch a brief trajectory of the shifting contours of Spanish Renaissance poetry and poetics. Notes1 Louise Glück, ‘Formaggio’, in The New Bread Loaf Anthology of Contemporary American Poetry, ed. Michael Collier & Stanley Plumly (Hanover/London: Univ. Press of New England, 1999), 92.2 The move toward historical reckoning, as posited by ‘New Historicism’, has been compared to the cultural materialism in vogue in Britain. See Steven Greenblatt, Renaissance Self-Fashioning: From More to Shakespeare (Chicago/London: Univ. of Chicago Press, 1980). For a perspective of the two, see John Brannigan, New Historicism and Cultural Materialism (London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2016).3 The binarism of these critical methods had its critics. Writing in 1981, Jerome McGann praised intrinsic studies as ‘the most influential work in literary criticism during the past fifty years’ (‘The Text, the Poem, and the Problem of Historical Method’, in Interpretation and Literary History, New Literary History, 12:2 [1981], 269–88 [p. 269]).

Based on contemporary chronicles, festival accounts and visual sources, our knowledge of these practices remains partial, both because contemporary writers and artists were largely non-Black and because these authors and artists inscribed these traditions within the Eurocentric exotic genre. In this article, I turn to festival accounts, government reports and visual sources, discuss the challenges and opportunities they present and develop diasporic, transgeographic and transtemporal methodologies allowing us to identify continuities across the Afro-Iberian diaspora.

This ceasefire was significant for New Spain (as colonial Mexico was then known) because the Emperor’s war with France had caused instability in the viceroyalty.
