Baltazar Gracian y Morales (1601 - 1658) - Spanish prose writer, philosopher and literary theorist, Jesuit. The largest representative of baroque literature.
The beginning of the literary work of Gracian dates back to 1636, when he moved to Huesca, one of the cultural centers of Aragon, where he received the post of preacher and confessor of the local Jesuit college. A year later, his first significant work, the moral treatise "Hero", was published, which was met with interest in Spain and Europe.
