| Sumario: | This article offers an analysis of the main rhetorical resources and techniques in España defendida by Francisco de Quevedo y Villegas. As a humanist, Quevedo aimed to show the extent of his assimilation of classical sources and their rhetorical tradition, and of sacred oratory. His oratorical skills are thus proven in a context of orality and of communicative transmission based on actio. Moreover, he succeeded in producing an important rhetorical work with which, with efficiency and erudition, he defended the Spanish nation against the invectives of foreign humanists. El presente artículo ofrece un análisis de los principales recursos retóricos y técnicas presentes en la España defendida de Francisco de Quevedo y Villegas. Parte, para ello, el humanista de su asimilación de las fuentes clásicas - portadoras, a su vez, de la tradición retórica - así como de la oratoria sagrada. En este sendero, Quevedo demuestra su capacidad oratoria en un marco de oralidad y de transmisión comunicativa en la actio. Asimismo, consigue componer una obra retórica en la que defiende, con eficacia y erudición, la nación española ante las invectivas de los humanistas extranjeros. |
