Abstract

In this paper we are going to study two lexical groups: that of happiness and that of slowness, both in the didactic use made by two poets: Alfonso Canales (in his poem The years), and Luis Antonio de Villena (A Reading of The Georgics). Differences and similarities are examined, the origins of vocabulary are studied upon literary topics, and special uses of some terms are discussed. Comparativism will also allow us to relate the literary culture with contributions by contemporary extraliterary movements, such as the Slow Mo. The didactic dimension of this literature is analyzed.
