Gaspar Gil Polo
Edit ProfileCareer
A notary by profession, Polo was attached to the treasury commission which visited Valencia in 1571, became coadjutor to the chief accountant in 1572, went on a special mission to Barcelona in 1580 and died there in 1591.
Timoneda, in the Sarao de amor (1561), alludes to him as a poet of repute; but of his miscellaneous verses only two conventional, eulogistic sonnets and a song survive.
Polo finds a place in the history of the novel as the author of La Diana enamorada.
