Abstract

Using as point of departure poems written by Juan Manuel Cobo, this article analyses an unpublished Jesuit manuscript held at the Spanish Royal Academy Library. Dating from the end of the sixteenth-century, it provides hundreds of compositions, mostly religious poetry in the «divine style», the most popular form used during that time to promote devotion of the mysteries of faith and power of saints.
