IRIARTE (or YRIARTE) Y OROPESA, TOMAS DE (1750-1791)

This article appears in Volume V14, Page 793 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: INV-JED
IRIARTE (or YRIARTE) Y OROPESA, TOMAS DE (1750-1791) , Spanish poet, was born on the 18th of September 1750, at Orotava in the
island
  of
Teneriffe
 , and received his literary education at Madrid under the care of his uncle, Juan de
Iriarte
 , librarian to the king of Spain. In his eighteenth year the nephew began his literary career by translating French plays for the royal theatre, and in 1770, under the anagram of Tirso Imarete, he published an
original
  comedy entitled Hacer que kace2nos. In the following year he became official translator at the foreign office, and in 1776 keeper of the records in the war department. In 178o appeared a dull didactic poem in cilvas entitled La Mitsica, which attracted some attention in Italy as well as at
home
 . The Fdbulas literarias (1781), with which his name is most intimately associated, are composed in a
great
  variety of metres, and show considerable ingenuity in their humorous attacks on literary men and methods; but their merits have been greatly exaggerated. During his later years, partly in consequence of the Fdbulas,
Iriarte
  was absorbed in personal controversies, and in 1786 was reported to the
Inquisition
  for his sympathies with the French philosophers. He died on the 17th of September 1791.
Iie is the subject of an exhaustive monograph (1897) by Emilio Cotarelo y Mori.
