		Due to the itinerant life-style of the family, little is known of his formal education until he turns up in Madrid as a rather mature pupil of the Erasmist Juan López de Hoyos in 1568.
		In the next year 1569 his first pieces were published, four elegies on the death of Elizabeth of Valois, third wife of Philip II.
		A voracious reader (he refers to picking up scraps of paper in the streets of Toledo to satisfy his thirst for words in Don Quixote), it is generally believed that the undisciplined nature of his education is the main factor contributing to his originality.
