Perhaps the greatest of Spain's Renaissance poets, Fernando de Herrera (1534-97), a native of Seville, was the writer who took on board the experiments with Italian forms carried out by his predecessors Juan Boscan and Garcilaso de la Vega (whose work he edited and annotated), and made of them a native style. As it was with many other poets elsewhere - such as Sir Thomas Wyatt in England - the example of Petrarch, both directly, and as mediated by Garcilaso, was crucial in the development of Herrera's elegant vernacular verse in Spanish. With Garcilaso, Boscan and Herrera, Spanish poetry takes wing. The generation that followed Herrera was to be the greatest literary flowering in Spanish history.

Herrera se propone en su comentario considerar los diferentes aspectos linguisticos y formales de la poesia de Garcilaso. Las reflexiones del autor son de una profundidad y rigor llamativos y son un pretexto para explicar sus teorias sobre la lengua poetica y la poesia. Esta edicion recoge en tres cuerpos de notas las variantes que Herrera introduce en el texto de Garcilaso con respecto a las principales ediciones de su epoca, las fuentes de las Anotaciones y los comentarios sobre Garcilaso que El Brocense habia realizado en dos ediciones anteriores a la de Herrera.
