Miguel de Unamuno y Jugo (Bilbao, 29 de septiembre de 1864 - Salamanca, 31 de diciembre de 1936) fue un escritor y filósofo español perteneciente a la generación del 98. En su obra cultivó gran variedad de géneros literarios, incluyendo novela, ensayo, teatro y poesía. Rector de la Universidad de Salamanca a lo largo de tres periodos, también fue diputado de las Cortes constituyentes de la Segunda República, de la que se fue distanciando hasta el punto de secundar la sublevación militar que dio inicio a la guerra civil, algo de lo que se arrepintió después públicamente.
Unamuno fue uno de los primeros existencialistas, preocupado por la tensión entre el intelecto y la emoción, la fe y la razón. Su principal ensayo filosófico fue Del sentimiento trágico de la vida (1912), y entre sus novelas más famosas se encuentran Niebla (1914), Abel Sánchez (1917), o La tía Tula (1921).
