Estoria del fecho de los godos.

Hijano, Manuel

Abstract

The Estoria del fecho de los godos is an early fifteenthcentury chronicle compiled from a variety of sources, including materials belonging to the tradition of King Alfonso X’s Estoria de España as well as a translation of Rodrigo Jiménez de Rada’s De rebus Hispaniae known as Toledano romanzado. This article provides a comprehensive list of the manuscripts of the chronicle, which are then classified into families and subfamilies. An analysis of the sources found in the two main versions of the chronicle (Estoria amplia and Estoria breve) gives rise to a series of hypothesis concerning their relationship and the date of composition of their common archetype. Finally, the article discusses the methodological challenges that this particular historiographical compilation poses to textual scholars, and their wider implications for the study of the late medieval “general chronicles of Spain”.
