In the 17th century, in the face of the general situation of crisis, the field of literature experienced a brilliant period. Its main features can be defined as national exaltation, popular character and defence of traditions. Among the different disciplines, the theatre and the picaresque novel stood out. Cervantes, together with Lope de Vega, Quevedo, Calderón and Góngora were some of the main figures of the period.
