| Note | Descr. de Gayangos 1875-93 I: 209: “HISTORIA DE LOS REYES CATOLICOS DON FERNANDO Y DOÑA ISABEL, escrita por el bachiller Andres Bernaldez, cura que fue de la villa de Los Palacios, capellan de D. Diego de Deza, arzobispo de Sevilla.’’ The present copy seems to have been prepared for the press in the latter years of last century. Versímilmente es el mismo MS descrito por Evans 1824: “1167 Historia de los Reyes Catholicos Don Fernando y Doña Isabel, ESCRITA POR BERNALDES cura que fué de la Villa de los Palacios y Capellan de Don Diego Deza, Arzobispo de Sevilla. *** A very neatly written copy of a highly interesting Manuscript. A large part of the work relates to the HISTORY OF COLUMBUS AND HIS DISCOVERIES; Bernaldes was personally acquainted with Columbus, and had entertained him as his Guest in 1496, as he states in his 123d Chapter. THIS WORK WAS TO HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED BY SaNCHA WITH HIS COLLECTION OF SPANISH CHRONICLES, and there is no doubt but that this is the copy that was to have served for the purpose; Don Joseph Miguel de Flores, from whose heirs it was purchased, having been one of the Editors of those Chronicles. There is not, perhaps, a more generally interesting work than this among the whole series of Spanish historians, nor one more deserving of publication.’’ |
