Don Juan Manuel

5 May 1282 - 13 June 1348

Don Juan Manuel (Escalona, 5 de mayo de 1282 – Córdoba, 13 de junio de 1348) fue un aristócrata y escritor en lengua castellana. Fue uno de los principales representantes de la prosa medieval de ficción, sobre todo gracias a su obra El conde Lucanor, conjunto de cuentos moralizantes (exempla) que se entremezclan con varias modalidades de literatura sapiencial.

Ostentó los títulos simultáneos de duque y príncipe de Villena y señor de Escalona, Peñafiel, Cuéllar, Elche, Cartagena, Lorca, Castillo de Garcimuñoz, Alcocer, Salmerón, Valdeolivas y Almenara. Fue además Mayordomo mayor de los reyes Fernando IV y Alfonso XI, Adelantado mayor de la frontera de Andalucía y Adelantado mayor del reino de Murcia.

Durante la última etapa de la minoría de edad de su sobrino, Alfonso XI de Castilla, fue tutor del rey junto con el infante Felipe de Castilla y Juan el Tuerto. Está enterrado en el Convento de San Pablo de la localidad de Peñafiel.
