Abstract
FERNANDEZ HOYOS, Sonia and FERNANDEZ DE LA TORRE, José Luis. A Cervantes’ poetic-metrical word: Aquelindo in El rufián dichoso. Nueva rev. filol. hisp. [online]. 2019, vol.67, n.1, pp.77-103. ISSN 2448-6558. https://doi.org/10.24201/nrfh.v67i1.3465.
El rufián dichoso is not merely a hagiography of the student-valentón Lugo in Seville and his definitive metamorphosis into Friar Cristóbal de la Cruz in Mexico. It is a play that presents a number of technical problems, one of those involving the aquelindo, the poetic composition sung and danced at the beginning of the play. The present article proposes that it here takes the form of a romance-jácara composed of two quintillas (five-line stanzas) and five redondillas (quatrains), and that it should not be confused with the traditional perqué, as previously has been suggested.
Keywords : aquelindo; metrics; romance-jácara; Cervantes; El rufián dichoso.
