Abstract


This essay points out a general source for Enrique de Villena's Los doce trabajos de Hércules. The source is Guido da Pisa's Fiorita d'Italia, specifically a section of it which is entirely devoted to Hercules' labors. Villena draws historical and exegetical data from this source, and at times he does so verbatim, but most often he amplifies and manipulates these data with originality in order to pursue his moral and political goals.
