Lecciones de literatura española

Lecciones de literatura española (1836), meaning "Lessons in Spanish Literature," is a work by Alberto Lista. Lista, a Spanish poet and critic, was a prominent figure of the late 18th-century Sevillian school, adhering to Neoclassicism. The book compiles lectures he delivered at the University of Madrid in 1822, aiming to educate readers on Neoclassical principles of taste, emphasizing the balance between form and content in literature. While his poetry showed some influence of the Romantic movement, his critical work focused on upholding classical standards.12
