    We could do both, couldn't we? We coud pick candidates in all cathegories/centuries and then vote. Does that sound meaningful to you guys?

      Maybe that would be too tiresome. Why not three bigger time cathegories:

      1. Ancient / Middle Ages
      2. Golden Age (15th, 16th and 17th centuries)
      3. Contemporary

      With the four "sinchronic" cathegories, that would make 12 nominates for poster. Shall we do it this way?

          Ya sabía yo que nadie me iba a comprender muy bien. Supongo que la palbra ni siquiera existe en inglés. En español se le puede llamar "diacrónico" a aquel aspecto o circunstancia sujeto a variación a lo largo del tiempo, mientras que "sincrónico" es el que puede ser de varias formas distintas en el mismo momento. Más o menos.

          Es que no se me ocurría otra palabra más adecuada.

          Pero te hacen esas categorías, o no?

            Si, mas o menos

            Lo de meter a toda la Golden Age junta no me termina de llenar mucho...

            Okay, make a definitive list of most infuential in.... and I think we could start from there. We'd need like ten (?) cathegories or so.

              Me pregunto si a alguien que no hubiese oído hablar en su vida de sincronía y diacronía le quedaría clara mi explicación...

              What about 15th and 16th Century together, and have the 17th Century as a separate cathegory (Lope, Quevedo, Calderón, Góngora, Velázquez, Gracián, etc...)?

              New thread, sir?
