Resumen de Pedro de Gracia Dei: un bosquejo biográfico.
- español
La biografía de Pedro de Gracia Dei se caracteriza por presentar numerosos interrogantes, debido a los escasos datos que conocemos sobre el autor. Nos encontramos ante una figura que, aunque estuvo vinculado al entorno de los Reyes Católicos, las magnas crónicas que se realizaron sobre este reinado por parte de escritores ligados también a la corte no nos revelan información sobre él. Teniendo que prescindir, por tanto, de las fuentes históricas que podemos considerar más fiables para poder trazar un perfil aproximado de Gracia Dei, debemos acudir a otros documentos, así como establecer conjeturas a partir de las pocas noticias que el propio autor plasmó en su producción literaria. Resultarán también, de gran interés al respecto, las rúbricas de sus obras que se copiaron durante los siglos xvi, xvii e, incluso, xviii, si bien se caracterizan por haber generado más controversia aún sobre los posibles cargos que desempeñaría Gracia Dei a lo largo de su vida.

The biography of Pedro de Gracia Dei is characterized by numerous unanswered questions, due to scarce data we know about the author. We are dealing with a leading figure who, although he was linked to the Catholic Monarchs’s environment, the great chronicles that were made about this reign by writers also tied to the court do not reveal any information about him. We must therefore dispense with the historical sources that we may consider more reliable to be able to draw an approximate profile of Gracia Dei, and we must turn to other documents, as well as establish conjectures from the few news that the author himself captured in his literary production. The rubrics of his works that were copied during the 16th, 17th and even 18th centuries will also be of great interest in this regard, although they are characterized by having generated even more controversy about the possible positions that Gracia Dei would perform throughout his life.
