Miguel de Cervantes was born and lived in Spain. He is widely considered to have been the best Spanish writer in history. Perhaps his most famous work and greatest literary achievement are writing Don Quixote. This tale revolves around a noble gentleman who loses his mind and sets out to become a traveling knight, in the pursuit of his idealistic goals. This work was among the first to introduce the antihero archetype, a character who is intended to be perceived as a hero, though lacks the common qualities of one.
Baldassare Castiglione was an Italian-born courtier and author, among many things. He lived some time (and died) in Spain. He is commonly known for writing The Courtier, a book that explored life at court. It listed the qualities of a courtier and dealt with proper etiquette and widely influenced the idea of what being a gentlemen means.
Dante Alighieri was an Italian poet and writer who was exiled. After his exile, Dante wrote many literary works. One famous work of his is The Divine Comedy. In this book, Dante explored the concept of life after death, describing trips through paradise, purgatory, and inferno. His works often included classical figures like the Roman poet Virgil who guides one of his journeys.
