In one work, this writer speaks of "a maiden so beautiful, that she might parch up Norway with her two suns, and bleach Ethiopia with her two hands." He composed dramas including "The Destruction of Troy" and the unfinished "Doctor Carlino," but more characteristic is his early "Ode on the Taking of Larache." Much of his work is collected in the Chacón manuscript and includes his "Fable of Pyramus and Thisbe" and "Fable of Polyphemus and Galatea." His writing is often dubbed the height of "culteranismo," referring to its Euphuistic and Latinized style, as contrasted with the "conceptismo" of his bitter rival Francisco de Quevedo. For 10 points, name this man whose death was later commemorated by Generación del '27, a poet from Cordoba known as the "Spanish Homer."
