Originally published in 1585, Juan Pérez de Moya's Secret Philosophy is a remarkable work of an allegorical and didactic nature, which interweaves elements of the classical tradition, Christian morality and natural cosmology. Under the veil of fabulous stories — many with mythological roots — the author seeks to convey universal teachings about the soul, the natural world, human behavior and the role of knowledge in active and contemplative life. The 1673 edition, printed in Madrid by Antonio de Zafra, confirms the long-standing interest in this work at the time, testifying to its circulation and influence over more than a century. Juan Pérez de Moya (c. 1512–1596), an Andalusian cleric and bachelor, stood out in the sixteenth century as a mathematician, astronomer and popularizer of science, and was the author of several didactic works, among which his Arithmética práctica y speculativa stands out. His writing reveals a strong pedagogical vocation and an interest in the synthesis between classical knowledge and Christian tradition. The Secret Philosophy is, in this sense, one of the most unique expressions of his thought, combining knowledge, imagination and morality in a treatise that is both edifying and instructive to read. !
