| Sumario: | "In the long process that led to the publication of La Florida del Inca (Lisbon, 1605), we can presume the existence of several pre-texts: manuscript copies of preliminary or partial versions. The only such documents discovered to date, two summaries of the completed but still handwritten work (c. 1596-1600), are published here as critical editions accompanied by a historical-philological study. The first text, entitled Epítome del descubrimiento de la tierra de la Florida, comes from a manuscript recently discovered at the Hispanic Society of America in New York. It is a summary dictated to a clerk by Garcilaso himself shortly after 1596, when the possibilities of publishing his work, completed around 1592, were difficult due to lack of political and economic patronage. The second text, entitled Historia de los sucesos de la Florida del adelantado Hernando de Soto, is much more extensive than the first. The study of its additions and errors reveals that is not a primitive version of La Florida, as was believed, but rather that it is a summary prepared by the chronicler Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas from a copy of the manuscript with the aim of plagiarizing its content, something he eventually did in his work, Décadas. The joint presentation of both pre-texts is an uncommon achievement in the history of Spanish prose which, beyond the microhistory of La Florida, sheds light on the complicated processes of the publication of Spanish classics"-- |
