    • Abstract:
      This article offers a survey of Quevedo's writings in support of the Immaculate Conception. The length and place of these writings, both scarce and not very original, within Quevedo's oeuvre: are at odds with the hagiographic words of his first biographer, Tarsia, who portrays Quevedo as a great devout and defender of the Inmaculate Conception. Quevedo's writings contrast as well with the more engaged attitude of contemporaries such as Lope de Vega and Calderón de la Barca. All of them are writing in the first half of the 17th century, a moment of great fervor in Spain, in an eventually unsuccessful push towards a declaration of the Immaculate Conception as Church dogma.

    • Abstract:
      Se estudian los escritos de Quevedo en apoyo de la concepción inmaculada de la Virgen. El espacio y el lugar que ocupan dichos textos dentro de la obra de nuestro autor contrastan, en su relativa parquedad y escasa originalidad, con las palabras de su primer biógrafo, Tarsia, quien en su afán hagiográfico retrata a Quevedo como gran devoto y defensor de la Inmaculada. Se diferencian estos textos también de las actitudes más comprometidas de escritores como Lope de Vega y Calderón de la Barca en una España, la de la primera mitad del xvii, marcada por un gran fervor inmaculista, que intenta, en vano, que la Iglesia declare la Inmaculada como dogma.
