Vera-Ortiz, J.A.; 2009

Jorge A. Vera-Ortiz, «Linaje emeritense de don Juan Antonio de Vera y Zúñiga, un pícaro conde genealogista y una creencia muy arraigada», Bulletin No. 257 of the Argentine Institute of Genealogical Sciences, pages 27 to 50, Buenos Aires, November-December 2009.

This article examines the lineage of Don Juan Antonio de Vera y Zúñiga, a count whose life and genealogical work are marked by both wit and controversy. The author, Jorge A. Vera-Ortiz, analyzes how deeply rooted beliefs about the lineage of this figure have influenced the historical perception of his legacy. In this way, from 1617 to 1635, the accumulation of studies that appeared exalting the lineage of the Count of La Roca is astonishing. These works were sometimes published under the names of well-known authors and genealogists, and sometimes under less familiar names, but many authors assume that these works were part of the fertile imagination of Juan Antonio de Vera y Zúñiga himself, who published them under pseudonyms to give them greater authority. The book [Mogrovejo de la Cerda, J.; 1636] would be an example of this practice.

Cervantes Saavedra, M. de; 1605

Gustavo Doré's illustration in the 1875 edition of Don Quixote

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, «El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha», edition with illustrations by Gustavo Doré, engravings by H. Pisan, in 2 volumes, printed by Imprenta y Librería Religiosa y Científica del Heredero de Don Pablo Riera, Robador Street, 24 and 26, Barcelona, 1875.


Original publication date

The original edition of «El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha» was published in 1605, with the second part released in 1615.

Illustrated edition details

This 1875 edition is notable for its elaborate illustrations by Gustavo Doré, a renowned French artist, and the detailed engravings by H. Pisan. The illustrations add a rich visual element to Cervantes' classic text, making this edition a significant artistic interpretation of the original work.

First Part, Chapter XVIII, excerpt

«—That knight you see over there with the yellow arms», Or, «who bears on his shield a crowned lion, bowed at the feet of a maiden, is the valiant Laurcalco, lord of the Silver Bridge;

the other with the golden flowered arms, who bears on his shield three silver crowns on a blue field, is the feared Micocolembo, grand duke of Quirocia;

the other with giant limbs, who stands to his right hand, is the never fearful Brandabarbarán de Boliche, lord of the three Arabias, who comes armed with that serpent's hide and bears on his shield a door, which, according to legend, is one of the doors of the temple that Samson destroyed when he avenged himself on his enemies with his death.

But turn your eyes to the other side and you will see before and in front of the other army the always victorious and never defeated Timonel of Carcajona, prince of New Biscay, who comes armed with quartered arms, blue, green, white, and yellow, and bears on his shield a golden cat on a tawny field, with an inscription that says «Miau», which is the beginning of his lady's name, who, as they say, is the incomparable Miulina, daughter of the duke Alfeñiquén of Algarve;

the other who presses down the back of that powerful steed, who bears arms as white as snow and a shield white and without any charges, is a novice knight, of French nation, named Pierres Papín, lord of the baronies of Utrique;

the other who strikes the flanks with the iron-shod heels of that painted and swift zebra and bears the blue vair arms, is the powerful duke of Nerbia, Espartafilardo del Bosque, who bears as a charge on his shield an asparagus plant, with an inscription in Castilian that says: «Tracks my fate».

And in this way, he went on naming many knights from one and the other squadron that he imagined, and to each of them, he gave arms, colors, charges, and mottos on the spot, driven by the imagination of his never-before-seen madness, and, without stopping, he continued saying...
