Summary: | This article explores the parodic and burlesque reinvention of the Petrarquist sonnet, around the figure of Juana, Juanilla, in the Rimas de Tomé de Burguillos (1634), a muse and washerwoman on Madrid’s river Manzanares. Various particularly sophisticated and ingenious processes are analyzed, which affirm a form of poetic irreverence and which make Juana’s sonnets an innovative “canzoniere” in which lyricism is comically reinvented and goes in search of poetic surprise. The “Phoenix” seeks to have fun and amuse its reader in one of the masterpieces of the “Senectute cycle”. |
