    PÍCARO In Spanish literature, especially of the Golden Age, the pícaro is a roguish character whose travels and adventures are used as a vehicle for social satire. The anonymous Lazarillo de Tormes (1554), which relates the life and adventures of one such character, is thought to be the first of the genre known as the picaresque novel, or novela picaresca. Other well-known picaresque novels were written by Cervantes (Rinconete y Cortadillo) and Francisco de Quevedo (El Buscón).

    Spain's literary renaissance, known as the Golden Age, roughly covers the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It includes the Italian-influenced poetry of figures such as Garcilaso de la Vega; the religious verse of Fray Luis de León, Santa Teresa de Ávila and San Juan de la Cruz; picaresque novels such as the anonymous Lazarillo de Tormes and Quevedo's Buscón; Miguel de Cervantes' immortal Don Quijote; the theater of Lope de Vega, and the ornate poetry of Luis de Góngora.
