El Conde Lucanor, también conocido como Libro de Patronio o Libro de los ejemplos, es una de las primeras obras de prosa en castellano. Escrito por Don Juan Manuel en 1335, el libro se divide en cuatro partes, siendo la primera y más conocida una serie de 50 cuentos cortos de diversas fuentes, como Esopo y cuentos populares árabes. Esta edición de Grafisk Forlag, publicada en 1984, presenta una colección de cuentos morales y didácticos que ofrecen consejos y enseñanzas a través de las interacciones entre el Conde Lucanor y su consejero Patronio.
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.
