Abstract
RIOS SALOMA, Martín F.. Claudio Sánchez-Albornoz, the Castillian Middle Ages and the Conquest of America: a critical review of a controversial position. Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2020, n.59, pp.263-282. Epub Jan 21, 2021. ISSN 0185-2620. https://doi.org/10.22201/iih.24485004e.2020.59.70963.
The present work approaches the Spanish medievalist Claudio Sánchez-Albornoz’ historiographical view on the conquest of America. Our analysis is based on Sánchez-Albornoz’ dissimilar texts published between 1930 and 1982 in order to assess, on the one hand, the continuance of his own ideas about the extrapolation of Spanish medieval experiences on the New World, and, on the other, his own appraisal of the American continent after his exile in Argentina during four decades.
