El Conde Lucanor, escrito por Don Juan Manuel entre 1330 y 1335, es una colección de cuentos que exploran las preocupaciones fundamentales del ser humano. A través de las conversaciones entre el conde Lucanor y su consejero Patronio, se abordan temas como el poder, el amor, el matrimonio, los enemigos, la mentira, la ambición y la muerte. Esta edición, con estudio introductorio y anotaciones críticas de María Jesús Zamora Calvo, respeta el texto original y lo hace accesible al público contemporáneo, ofreciendo explicaciones culturales, léxicas y gramaticales.
Don Juan Manuel was a Spanish medieval writer, nephew of Alfonso X of Castile, son of Manuel of Castile and Beatrice of Savoy. He inherited from his father the great Lordship of Villena, receiving the titles of Lord, Duke and lastly Prince of Villena. He married three times, choosing his wives for political and economic convenience, and worked to match his children with partners associated with royalty. Juan Manuel became one of the richest and most powerful men of his time, coining his own currency as the kings did. During his life, he was criticised for choosing literature as his vocation, an activity thought inferior for a nobleman of such prestige.
