To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Digitized by Google 644 Reign of Philip IIL Singularly enough, along with this crushing humilia- tion of the material interests of Spain, went the most brilliant intellectual development. The age of Philip II., of Philip III., and Philip IV., from 1550 to 1665, saw an astounding multitude of poets, historians, dram- atists, artists, spring up as if by magic, out of the con- quest of Granada, the Italian campaigns, and the mar- vellous deeds of the conquerors of the New World.
Garcilasso de la V...ega (1503-36), and Hurtado de Men- doza (1503-75), — the one a charming ecloguist, the other an elegant historian and reputed founder of the gusto picaresco in Spain, — illustrated the reign of Charles V. Then followed, in the early part of his reign and in the next, a series of the most delightful chroniclers — Cortds, Gomara, the charming old sol- dier Bernal Diaz, Oviedo, Las Casas — telling the won- ders of Mexico, Peru, and the Indian islands, fit con- tinuers of the glowing narratives of Columbus.
