Quevedo's 'Polvo serán, mas polvo enamorado' analyzed by Antonio Prete

Antonio Prete examines the final verse of Francisco de Quevedo's sonnet 'Amor costante más allá de la muerte' (Love constant beyond death), 'polvo serán, mas polvo enamorado' (they will be dust, but dust in love). The sonnet belongs to Quevedo's 'amorous' poetry, distinct from his grave, religious, moral, or festive works. Prete highlights Quevedo's agility across forms and tones, characteristic of the Spanish Golden Age poet. Quevedo was a contemporary of Cervantes, Lope de Vega, and Calderón de la Barca.
