Alonso Jerónimo de Salas Barbadillo (c. 1580 – 10 July 1635) was a Spanish novelist and playwright, born in Madrid, and educated in Alcalá de Henares and Valladolid.[1]

His first work, La Patrona de Madrid restituida (1609), is a devout poem, which forms a prelude to La Hija de Celestina (1612), a transcription of picaresque scenes reprinted under the title of La Ingeniosa Elena. This was followed by a series of similar tales and plays, the best of which are:

• El Cavallero puntual (1614),
• La Casa de placer honesto (1620),
• Don Diego de Noche (1623) and
• a most sparkling satirical volume of character-sketches, El Curioso y fabio Alexandro (1634).[1]

He died in poverty in Madrid on 10 July 1635.[1]

Some of his works were translated into English and French, and Scarron's Hypocrites is based on La Ingeniosa Elena. According to an evaluation in the Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, "[H]e deserved the vogue which he enjoyed till late in the 17th century, for his satirical humour, versatile invention and pointed style are an effective combination."[1]
