Snow 1977, no. 60: "A wonderfully detailed detective study of two works attributed to Alfonso: the strophes of the Querellas which Pellicer first brought to light (1663) and also the ballad, "Yo salí de mi tierra". Although neither can be assigned to Alfonso any longer (especially after this study) Cotarelo's search is fascinating, complete with a surprise twist as to the identity of the perpetrator of the original hoax." |
