a) She was Beatriz Galindo, known as "La Latina"
ReplyDeleteb) She was a Spanish writer and humanist, teacher (or private tutor) of the children of the Catholic Monarchs. She was one of the most educated women of her time. There is uncertainty about her date of birth; some authors believe it is 1464 or 1474.
c) He was the teacher (or private tutor) of Queen Isabella I the Catholic, the King of Aragon Ferdinand II and the children of this (as I said before). She taught Catherine of Aragon, the future wife of Henry VIII of England, and Joanna of Castile, the future wife of Philip of Habsburg and later known as Juana the Mad. She appears (dressed in black) in the photographic reproduction of oil painting "Testament Isabel the Catholic"(Museum of Prado, Madrid), which is a historical recreation of the 19th century, the work of Eduardo Rosales, along with the Catholic Kings, Cardinal Cisneros and other characters from the royal court.
d) Beatriz Galindo was removed from the court in 1510, when her husband died; Secretary Fernan Ramirez. Leaving the court, decided to move to Madrid, where in 1506 had founded a hospital dedicated to the care and education of young orphans. Subsequently, also founded the monastery of the Concepcion Jerónima, whose library she donated most of her books after her death. In the last years of her life, Beatriz Galindo spent the majority of their income in pious and religious foundations.
In that study Torriglia Llanos and stands out for its lack in general, one aspect of the last phase of the life of Beatriz Galindo, fully seated in Madrid: its relation to the Emperor Charles V. Starting next year, America served as warden of the fortress of El Pardo, by direct order of the emperor. Before her death, she left sole heir to her grandson, Diego Ramirez de Madrid , which he bequeathed the most important territorial possessions ( home, in the neighborhood that bears his name , as well as protection founded in 1506 Hospital) , and contains an interesting inventory of his personal library . Among the works that are attributed to Beatriz Galindo highlights undoubtedly a Comment Aristotle, dedicated to Queen Isabella, and inventories contained in some of his books. No wonder that some years later, still the fame of La Latina resonate in the literary activity of another posh Madrid , Lope de Vega, who dedicated his Laurel Silva V Apollo Beatriz Galindo.
