Description
Facsimile edition of 2007 of 10 original manuscripts, of various formats, which are preserved in the National Historical Archive of Madrid, and which have Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar as the main protagonist (in some of them the Cid appears as a giver of goods to the Church ).
They are, in fact, originals, copies and forgeries of the cidiano cartulary from various public and private archives and which are currently kept in the National Historical Archive. The cartulary was the medieval book where the monasteries copied the property titles of their real estate.
In short, we are talking about extremely interesting documents to trace the biography of Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar with the greatest detail, because they demonstrate his religious faith through donations or his phases of courtesan boom and bust. In fact, this material has been canonized and has been used as a historical basis by later biographers of the Castilian hero.
Numbered edition, limited to 995 copies certified by notarial deed. Documents of various sizes and reproduced on special aged parchment paper. Presented in an elegant black box, with gold titles, closed 37.5 x 53 x 5 cm, and open 77 x 53 x 6 cm.
Accompanied by the corresponding historical and historiographical study book, hard-bound with illustrated dust jacket.
