Amarilis (poet)
Amarilis was a pseudonymous poet from Peru in the late 16th-century. Amarilis is known from a single poem, an epístola to Belardo, which she sent to Spanish playwright Lope de Vega, whom she evidently admired, and which he published in 1621 in La Filomena. Her identity remains a mystery, but Amarilis is generally believed to have been a woman.[1]
