Its most vivid and symptomatic formulation is contained in the works by two authors of the Continent who, in different ways, deeply influenced the Elizabethan authors: Baldassare Castiglione’s Il Cortegiano (1502; 1528) and Baltasar Gracián’s El héroe (1637), El discreto (1646) and Oráculo manual y arte de prudencia (1647).engRenascimentoSociedade de corteÉticaEducação do Príncipe e do Cortesãojournal article
