Biography

Writer of the famous dramatized novel La Celestina (1499), which first appeared as Comedia de Calisto y Melibea, and later as Tragicomedia de Calisto y Melibea. Rojas was a converted Jewish lawyer, but that is about all that is known about him. There are questions about his authorship of the tragicomedy, but all scholars agree that he did write at least most of it. Next to Don Quixote, La Celestina is considered the greatest work in all Spanish literature.
