EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Pere Miquel Carbonell (1434-1517): A Catalan Historian and Humanist of the Renaissance Era Pere Miquel Carbonell, born in 1434 in Catalonia, Spain, was a prominent figure during the Renaissance period as a Catalan historian and humanist. His significant contribution to the preservation and dissemination of Catalan language, literature, and history is evident in his seminal work, "Croniques d'Espanya fins aci no divulgades" (Chronicles of Spain Not Yet Published), which was first printed in Barcelona by Carles Amoros in 1546. Carbonell's work was a testament to the rich historical heritage of Catalonia and Spain during the Modern Age. As a humanist, he was deeply interested in the revival of classical learning and the use of the vernacular language in literature. In "Croniques d'Espanya," he chronicled the history of Spain from the Roman conquest to his own time, providing a valuable account of the events, personalities, and cultural developments that shaped the region. The first edition of "Croniques d'Espanya," printed in 1546 by Carles Amoros, marked a significant milestone in the history of Catalan literature. It was one of the earliest printed books in the Catalan language and demonstrated the growing importance of the vernacular in the realm of literature and learning. Carbonell's work also showcased the vibrant intellectual culture of Catalonia during the Renaissance, which was characterized by its commitment to humanist ideals and its rich literary and artistic traditions. Carbonell's legacy as a historian and humanist continues to inspire scholars and researchers today. His work remains an essential resource for understanding the history and culture of Catalonia and Spain during the Renaissance period. This image, which captures the essence of Pere Miquel Carbonell's scholarly pursuits, serves as a reminder of the enduring importance of preserving and celebrating the intellectual achievements of the past.
