RATIS AEMVLA SOLIS. EL ELOGIO POÉTICO DE LA NAO VICTORIA.

The glorious voyage of the 'Nao Victoria' circumnavigating the Earth for the first time gave rise to endless festivities and public celebrations. A review is made of the poetic imprint that such a singular feat has left, then and over the centuries, in vernacular and Neo-Latin literature, an imprint that, although not very extensive, ranges from pure praise and heroic epic to the simile or paragon as anoutbidding formula.
