«Tradición retórica en las vidas de Antonio Palomino: esquemas biográficos y extravagancia del artista en El Parnaso español pintoresco y laureado (1724)»
| Résumé |
abStRact: This article explores the genre underpinnings of
Palomino’s Parnaso by examining the origins of the model in
artistic biographies prior to Vasari’s. In particular, we propose
that Palomino’s biographies follow patterns and rhetorical topoi
akin to those studied by Ernst Kris and Otto Kurz (1987), although
Palomino does not take them only from the artistic biography
genre, but form a related pattern: the life of the poet.
This model determines Palomino’s biographies, in which he
introduces, be it via Vasari or under his own steam, certain
variants that are very important to understand his way of thinking.
Among the traits that Palomino’s Parnaso takes from this
tradition we will underscore one, already present in Vasari but
differently seen by Palomino: the character of the artist, which in
Palomino seems closer to eighteenth-century sociability than to the
extravagance of the melancholic genius. |
