	ESPINEL, VICENTE MART&IACUTE;NEZ. The Columbia Encyclopedia: Sixth Edition. 2000 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Espinel was notorious for his dissolute life, which his holy vows, taken in 1589, did little to change.
		Espinel’s Rimas (1591) introduced the decima, or espinela, a new poetic form of 10 eight-syllable lines rhyming abbaaccdde.
		Espinel is best known for his picaresque, semiautobiographical novel Vida del escudero Marcos de Obregón [the life of Squire Marcos de Obregón] (1618), from which Le Sage adapted episodes and characters for Gil Blas.

		The fifth string was not invented by the celebrated poet and musician, Espinel, but adapted by him.
		At the same time that four string guitars were being used, other of five strings began to appear, as noted for us by Juan Bermudo in his "Statement of Instruments," which was publish- ed in 1555.
		"This is the moment," says Sainz de la Maza, "in which Cervantes praises Vicente Espinel in his Galatea (Cervantes' pastoral novel, written in 1585); when the two currents of the musical and popular cults came to be synthesized in the guitar, and determined its future success.

	GOLDEN AGE POETRY
		Not even the writers who divided their literary works between the 16th and 17th centuries have remained perfectly placed.
		There are authors such as Cervantes or Vicente Espinel who are vaguely included in one century or the other.
		For this reason, our approach will be to offer a simple panorama of this epoch.

	Cuba, What is décima? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The term décima refers to a Spanish poetic form consisting of one or more stanzas each with 10 octosyllabic lines.
		Most décimas are composed in the style known as espinela, after the Spanish poet, novelist and musician Vicente Espinel (15441644), who in 1591 published 10line verses of octosyllabic lines with a rhyme scheme of abbaaccddc.
		If virtually unknown to English speakers (Manuel 1991: 87), a substantial body of research and anthologies in Spanish celebrates the décima from a range of cultural, historical, and musical perspectives.

	The Round Table
		These illustrious artists, with names such as Pedro Ríos, Jesús Díaz, Perfecto Álvarez, among others, had the custom of meeting around a round table (if one was available) and took turns improvising the poetic form or reciting décimas, usually with literary or historic themes.
		Every week, each one of the trovadores selected a theme around which every other table member had to improvise around, always holding to the rigid and demanding structure of the décima, a form originally codified by the 17th century Spanish poet Vicente Espinel (a hence, the form was also known as the Espinela).
		Usually accompanied by a guitar (there were not many available cuatristas in the region during that particular period in time) each one of the poets had to improvise or compose the décimas based on his knowledge of the selected theme, which was always a surprise.
