Abstract

In 1531 the Italian jurist Andrea Alciato (1492-1550) published Emblematum liber, a work that had a great influence on Europe. Alciato's work consisted of an anthology of poems that were illustrated, each of which had a title or theme. The purpose of the illustration and the title was intended to facilitate the understanding and interpretation of the text by the reader. Emblematum liber is considered the starting point of the emblematic which later gave rise to the emblematic literary genre. Alciato's work encouraged many authors to follow the path of the emblems. The correspondence between the title (inscription), image (pictura), and explanatory text (subscriptio or epigrama) gave rise to a consolidated gender that spread rapidly throughout Europe. The purpose of this paper is to present the influence that emblematic had on Spanish economic thought of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, in particular on the works of Cristóbal Pérez de Herrera (1556-1620) and Diego Saavedra Fajardo (1584-1648). © 2014 Estudios de Economia Aplicada.
