FÉLIX LOPE DE VEGA CARPIO (Madrid, 1562 – 1635) Spanish playwright and poet, revolutionized the dramatic genre in the Golden Age. From a young age, Lope de Vega showed a precocious talent for writing, composing comedies and translating from Latin at an early age. His life was intense and often controversial, alternating periods of literary success with episodes of love affairs, duels, and exiles. He worked as a secretary for nobles, participated in the Spanish Armada, and, after a deep personal crisis, became a priest in 1614, never abandoning his literary work

In 1577, he entered the University of Alcalá and later served various powerful men. Becoming a famous author and a respectable family man after breaking up with his lover, Lope received two harsh blows in just one year: the deaths of his son and his wife in 1612 and 1613, plunging him into a deep crisis that led him to take holy orders. He even officiated mass. From this period are works like La dama boba, El perro del hortelano, and Fuenteovejuna. Both in quantity and quality, his work is vast, especially his theater, a genre in which the volume of his production is hardly quantifiable, even by experts.
