		Gonzalo de Berceo was born in the end of the 12th century in the Riojan village of Berceo, close to the major Benedictine monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla.
		He is celebrated for his poems on religious subjects, written in a style of verse which has been called Mester de Clerecía, shared with more secular productions such as the Libro de Alexandre and the Libro de Apolonio, and later works, such as the fourteenth-century Libro de Buen Amor.
		He also wrote the fragmentary Martirio de San Lorenzo (the Martyrdom of Saint Lawrence, the Roman martyr of the third century), which may be connected to a shrine of St Lawrence supposedly built by Aemilian himself, at the top of the mountain below which the monastery of San Millán is situated.

		Nevertheless, this vision of "Berceo propagandist" has not to diminish the poetic value of his work nor to contrast with the religiosity of which the monasteries are bearers.

		De Berceo, primer poeta castellano de nombre conocido y el más genuino representante del mester de clerecía, se sabe bastante, aunque si se compara con otros poetas contemporáneos o aun posteriores puede parecer francamente poco.
		Gonzalo de Berceo debió de morir bastante mayor; diversas escrituras notariales mencionan que vivía aun en 1264.
		Pero a pesar de esto, poco más es lo que se conoce de su vida, que debió de transcurrir plácidamente entre gentes sencillas, entregada a sus deberes religiosos y a componer sus obras.

		El propósito de Berceo es dar sabor de cosa próxima y vivida a lo que cuenta, precisamente por la condición de la gente sencilla a que se dirige.
		Se esfuerza por ser gráfico y familiar, para lo cual recurre a comparaciones de prácticas de los labriegos, a locuciones campesinas, a nombres de utensilios domésticos, a refranes.
		Pero lejos de ser ingenuo, Berceo fue un experto en las técnicas y estructuras de la literatura didáctica y un propagandista experto que sentía profunda lealtad por el monasterio al que estaba vinculado, localizado estratégicamente en el camino francés a Santiago de Compostela, por donde pasaban múltiples peregrinos.

		He became a priest and passed the whole of his life in or near the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla.
		His compositions extend to more than 13,000 verses (Alexandrines), arranged in monorhymed quatrains (cuaderna via), and, at least in so far as the truly authentic are concerned, are religious and hagiographical in their nature.

		Gonzalo de Berceo nació, con toda probabilidad, hacia finales del siglo XII, en el pueblo denominado Berceo, aledaño a la abadía de San Millán de la Cogolla.
		Berceo es un poeta ingenuo, con alguna erudición y, aunque sencillo, de gran inspiración.
		Se podría decir que su obra es un fresco de grandes proporciones, aunque con un toque rústico y un admirable candor, inconfundibles ambos.

		By Berceo's times, the pilgrim route from France to the shrine of Saint James in Compostela was a well-traveled one indeed, and passed just ten miles north of the monastery of San Millán de Suso, at the foot of the Sierra de la Demanda mountains, where the poet was raised from boyhood.
		Berceo's imagery of the here-and-now, though typical of his poetic opus in general, is especially significant in De los signos on several levels.
		Perhaps Berceo chose to end his list of allusions to wealth and power with a potent reminder not only that such textile symbols will be reduced to nothing, but that they never amounted to much more than the humble rabbit in its hole in the first place.

		After a brief critique of that view on theoretical grounds (it is based on too narrow a concept of ideology), I argue that the Virgin Mary is not so much an ideological trope for an institution, as for a process of negotiation between different forms of authority and power.
		Berceo's manipulation of the convention of Virgin as 'mediatrix', his adaptation of his sources, and his representation of the 'miraculous', combine to reconcile some of the contradictions that were produced in the course of the profound social, political, and cultural changes of early thirteenth-century Iberia.
		The Virgin Mary was a fulcrum between the two poles of this 'harmonious discord', and as such she was appropriated by clerics eager to represent themselves as the indispensable mediators between a diverse, expanding society and the increasingly institutionalized centres of religious and secular authority.

		Berceo's works abound with imagery of blindness versus sight and darkness versus light, where light symbolizes the divine, sight enables Christians to connect with God, and blindness or lack of sight in darkness impedes Christian salvation.
		Along with Christian imagery, Berceo's depiction of blindness incorporates the scientific principles of medieval vision theory and cognitive psychology in a synthesis typical of the learned mester de clerecía's literary school.
		Berceo knew how light enabled sight and how sight lead to understanding in both the physical realm of cognition and the interior realm of the soul.

		Gonzalo de Berceo was born in the end of the 12th century in the (Dry red table wine from the Rioja region of northern Spain) Riojan village of Berceo, close to the major Benedictine monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla.
		This view has been propounded above all by Brian Dutton, editor of Gonzalo de Berceo's collected works, although some critics (notably Fernando Baños and Isabel Uría Maqua) have taken a view which presents the poet as less motivated by his concerns for the monastery; others (particularly Gregory Andrachuk) have linked him to the Lateran reforms.

		Sus libros han sido calificados de «cantares de gesta a lo divino», debido a la abundancia de elementos épicos que se mezclan en los textos.
		Su obra cumbre, Los Milagros de Nuestra Señora, es un buen ejemplo del renacer del culto mariano en el siglo XIII, que ofrecería otras obras tan importantes como Las Cantigas a Nuestra Señora, de Alfonso X.
