CFTINA, GUTIERRE DE (1518?-1572?)

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 775 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAU-CHA
CFTINA, GUTIERRE DE (1518?-1572?) , Spanish poet and soldier, was born at
Seville
  shortly before 1520. He served under Charles V. in
Italy
  and Germany, but retired from the army in 1545 to settle in
Seville
 . Soon afterwards, however, he sailed for
Mexico
 , where he resided for some ten years; he appears to have visited Seville in 1557, and to have returned to
Mexico
 , where he died at some date previous to 1575. A follower of Boscan and Garcilaso de la Vega, a friend of Jeronimo de Urrea and Baltavar del Alcazar, Cetina adopted the doctrines of the Italian school and, under the name of Vandalio, wrote an extensive
series
  of poems in the newly introduced metres; his sonnets are remarkable for elegance of form and sincerity of sentiment, his other productions being in
great
 
part
  adaptations from Petrarch; Ariosto and Ludovico Dolce. His patrons were Antonio de Leyva, prince of
Ascoli
 , Hurtado de
Mendoza
 , and Alva's grandson, the duke de Sessa, but he seems to have profited little by their
protection
 . His works have been well edited by Joaquin Hazanas y la Rua in two volumes published at Seville (1895).
