Born in Cordoba in 1411 and passing away in Torrelaguna in 1456, Mena's literary works epitomize the transition period between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance in Spain. His poetry reflects a profound influence of Renaissance humanism, which sought to revive classical learning and emphasize individual potential.
