«Libro de buen amor» is the medieval poetry collection by Juan Ruiz, Archpriest of Hita, published by Planeta in paperback (258 pages, in Spanish).
«Libro de buen amor» brings together narrative and lyrical compositions on love in its various forms, from courtly courtship to carnal desire. With irony and a didactic purpose, Juan Ruiz combines love episodes, satire of customs, fables and moral digressions, and paints a vivid portrait of 14th-century society.
This edition, published in 1993 by Planeta, includes an introduction and notes by Alberto Blecua, professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona.
A work frequently read in university courses on Spanish literature and a reference point for those approaching medieval Castilian classics.
