La prosa d'art en Isabel de Villena

2011

Abstract

A first approach to Isabel de Villena’s use of the so-called "prosa d’art" in her Vita Christi, a style originated in the medieval artes dictaminis. It is shown that usually Villena’s rhetoric preferences are similar to Joan Roís de Corella’s; at least to those in his proses mitològiques period, which are stated as a point of reference here as they have already been rhetorically characterized.
