    Antonio de Nebrija (&#;&#; 5 July ) was the most influential Spanish humanist of his era.

    ChL , Introductiones Latinae by Antonio de Nebrija, ca. [folio 1]

    In my research, inom try to understand important books written in the American hemisphere and inspired by canonical works of the Spanish language and literature from Spain. Therefore, it has been a pleasant surprise to realize that the Morgan Library & Museum has incunabula of Elio Antonio de Nebrija (–), which have been fundamental for the study of Latin and Spanish for half a millennium.

    GRAMÁTICA DE NEBRIJA

    Spanish humanist of world relevance, Antonio Martínez de Cala y Xarana – better known as Antonio de Nebrija, given his birth in Lebrija (the ancient Roman Nrebrissa Veneria) – was, in terms of the multiplicity of his knowledge, a prototypical Renaissance man: historian, royal chronicler, poet, pedagogue, teacher, grammarian, translator, exegete, printer, editor, But to what he owes, above all, his posterity is his work as a linguist, as a philologist, as a grammarian.

    In he published the first Grammar of the Castilian Language (sic) and, in that same year, his Latin-Spanish Dictionary, which, a couple of years later, would be followed by the Spanish-Latin Dictionary. Works that we now highlight here but that are part of a general corpus as broad as important, not in vain he produced for more than half a century, something not very usual for his time.

    We commemorate his death and celebrate his life dedicated to shared knowledge.
