Description
In seventeenth-century Spain a lineage was a legal and financial instrument as much as a matter of pride: it governed access to office, to military orders, to exemption from tax, and it had to be documented. Books like this one were commissioned to do that documenting — tracing a house back through charters, marriages and grants to an origin honourable enough to settle the question. They are partisan by construction and factually uneven, and they remain a principal source for the genealogy and the social ambitions of the Spanish nobility. This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1650 edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.
