El 'Oráculo manual y arte de prudencia' de Baltasar Gracián es una obra perteneciente a la prosa didáctica del Barroco. A través de trescientos aforismos comentados, ofrece un conjunto de normas para triunfar en una sociedad compleja y en crisis. Gracián aconseja al lector sobre cómo ser sagaz, inteligente y prudente, resumiendo preceptos de sus obras anteriores dedicadas a la filosofía moral. La obra presenta un sistema de pensamiento estratégico, definido incluso en sus contradicciones, para desenvolverse en un mundo hostil y engañoso, donde las apariencias a menudo prevalecen sobre la virtud y la verdad.
