CRÓNICA de 1344. Madrid. 1970. - CRÓNICA de 1344 . Edición crítica del texto español que ordenó el Conde de Barcelos don Pedro Alfonso. Preparada por Diego Catalán y María Soledad de Andrés en el Seminario Menéndez Pidal. Madrid: Editorial Gredos, 1970. XCIV, [2], 358, [2] pp.: il.; 275 mm. The Chronicle of 1344 , commissioned by Pedro Afonso, Count of Barcelos, natural son of King Denis I of Portugal, is one of the most important general chronicles of medieval Iberian historiography. The original text, written in Portuguese in 1344, was lost, having been reworked around 1400; this Galician-Portuguese version and the Castilian translations of both versions survived. The present critical edition of the Spanish text, prepared by Diego Catalán and María Soledad de Andrés at the Seminario Menéndez Pidal, with an introductory study by Diego Catalán, is part of the Fuentes Cronísticas de la Historia de España collection and constitutes the reference edition of the chronicle, continuing the pioneering work of Ramón Menéndez Pidal and Lindley Cintra on medieval Iberian historiographical sources. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
