This volume discusses five Early Modern literary texts that emerged in Europe between 1499 and 1627: 'La Celestina', the 'Dialoghi d'Amore' by Leone Ebreo, the first picaresque novel, 'Lazarillo de Tormes', Michel de Montaigne's 'Essais', and Joao Pinto Delgado's poeticising treatments of biblical texts. The book understands these texts as essential for the epoch, the interpretation of which has hitherto focused mainly on the - alleged or actual - Jewish, 'New Christian', or Marranic affiliation of their authors.
