El Conde Lucanor is Don Juan Manuel's great 14th century masterpiece, a collection of 50 moral tales or "exempla" in the style of Boccacio's Decameron, but anticipating it by more than a decade. The frame is provided by Count Lucanor's problems and his counselor Patronio's solutions, each in the form of a tale ending with a rhymed moral. The tales are composed in a lucid, informal and spirited style that set the standard for the age, and is relevant to our own.
