Descripción
Sumario:It has been commonly assumed that the historical reference to the death of the Sevillian poet Alonso Álvarez de Soria made in Quevedo’s <i>Buscón</i> signals the <i>terminus a quo</i> for the composition of the work. In his biography of Álvarez de Soria, Rodríguez Marín argued that his execution did take place at the end of 1603 or at the beginning of 1604, and this hypothesis has been maintained and repeated so long without being questioned. But the fact is that there are no known documents that can help to verify the date of Álvarez de Soria’s execution. A systematic examination of the existing documentation on the poet and of the annals, ephemerides and local chronicles composed in Seville during the years related to Álvarez de Soria’s death have not allowed to find any mention or clue of the event. Only literary testimonies, which are here also provided, have transmitted this notice. A series of mysteries and uncertainties, which are underlined, arise as future lines of research.
