Beskrivelse
One thing should be clear to the readers: I was sure from the beginning that Lucena was the author of La Celestina. The challenge was to know the real name behind the pseudonym Lucena. In 2004 I thought that it was Juan del Encina. This was the result of intuition and much reading. Consequently when I stated that Juan del Encina was the writer of books such as La Celestina, Amadís, Carajicomedia, Sergan, etc., the reader should always bear in mind that at the first stage I reverted to Lucena and at the second stage to Juan del Encina. I wrote this book in English, seeing the sarcastic comments I received in Salamanca and to which I have reverted in Volume I, hoping that people in other countries will have a more open mind to innovation and new ideas. On the other hand, through English texts historians in my native country will also be aware of the importance of the Spanish literature around 1500, because till now they've stuck too much to French history.
