«La Celestina» is the tragicomedy by Fernando de Rojas, published by Ediciones Cátedra in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
A classic of Spanish literature that has given rise to multiple interpretations. Everything in it raises questions: authorship, dating, title, genre, meaning and intention. This edition omits some parts, but preserves the continuity, the peculiarity of the work and the wit of its author.
The work was originally published in 1499 as «Comedia o Tragicomedia de Calisto y Melibea»; this edition is number 8 of the Cátedra Base collection (2nd edition, 2004).
Aimed at young readers who are starting out with the classics; reading age from 13 years.
Fernando de Rojas was a Spanish author and dramatist, known for his only surviving work, La Celestina, first published in 1499. It is variously considered "the last work of the Spanish Middle Ages or the first work of the Spanish Renaissance".
