                   CHARLES I CULTURE

Spanish literature that looks to the sixteenth century, like so many other manifestations of cultural life, is perceived as the result of a tension between the media of the fifteenth century, the history of the sixteenth century, and the impositions of the new cultural impulse. That supposes the development of the humanistic ideals. In the same way as in the Spanish literature of the second half of the sixteenth century its best manifestations will be largely explained, as a result of the circumstances and the achievements that preceded it.
