Note 146 — Chapter II · (continued 2)

K. Brunhuber, to whose work on the Arcadia (Sir Philip Sidneys Arcadia und ihre Nachläufer, 1903) I am in a measure indebted, failing to find many specific borrowings, is inclined to make light of Montemayor's influence. There can, however, be little question that, in general style and conception, Sidney, while influenced by the Greek romance, yet belonged essentially to the Spanish school.
