The translation proposed in this article was presented to the extraordinary translation award of the University of Granada in 1985. In that year, tribute was paid to the great baroque poet from Granada Pedro Soto de Rojas. The translator expresses her passion for baroque poetry in general, due to the metamorphosis, the image, the illusion and the dynamism typical of this type of poetry. The text presented here –the translation into French of seven poems by Pedro Soto de Rojas, which was awarded the price, has suffered minor changes in order to better accommodate the metrics to the baroque criteria.
