From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Libro del caballero Zifar, f. 32r del manuscrito de París. «De cómmo una leona llevó a Garfín, el fijo mayor del cavallero Zifar»

Medieval Spanish literature is the literature written in medieval Spanish between the beginning of the 13th and the end of the 15th century. Traditionally, the first and last works of this period are the Cantar de Mio Cid, an epic poem from 1207, and La Celestina (1499), a book considered a transition between the medieval period and the Renaissance.
