- Antonio_de_Guevara abstract "Antonio de Guevara (c. 1481 – April 3, 1545) was a Spanish chronicler and moralist.Born in Treceño in the province of Cantabria, he passed some of his youth at the court of Isabella I of Castile. In 1528 he entered the Franciscan order, and afterwards accompanied Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, during his journeys to Italy and other parts of Europe. He held successively the offices of court preacher, court historiographer, Bishop of Guadix and Bishop of Mondoñedo. His earliest work, entitled Reloj de principes, published at Valladolid in 1529, and, according to its author, the fruit of eleven years' labour, is a didactic novel, designed, after the manner of Xenophon's Cyropaedia, to delineate in a somewhat ideal way, for the benefit of modern sovereigns, the life and character of an ancient prince, Marcus Aurelius, distinguished for wisdom and virtue. It was often reprinted in Spanish; and before the close of the century had also been translated into Latin, Italian, French and English, an English translation by J Bourchier (London, 1546) and another by Thomas North. There is another version of this text, either earlier or later, Libro Aureo that Guevara did not want published, according to José Luis Alberg, it came out around the same time. That version in its definitive form was published by the great French Hispanist in 1929. It is difficult now to account for the extraordinary popularity of the work. It gave rise to a great literary controversy, the author having tried to claim it as historically accurate, appealing to an imaginary "manuscript in Florence." Other works of Guevara are the Decada de los Césares (Valladolid, 1539), or "Lives of the Ten Roman Emperors," in imitation of the manner of Plutarch and Suetonius; and the Epistolas familiares (Valladolid, 1539–1545), sometimes called "The Golden Letters," often printed in Spain, and translated into all the principal languages of Europe. They are in reality a collection of stiff and formal essays which have long ago fallen into merited oblivion. Guevara, whose influence upon the Spanish prose of the 16th century was considerable, also wrote Libro de los inventores del arte de marear (Valladolid, 1539, and Madrid, 1895).In the same year, Guevara wrote a work of crucial importance called “Aviso de privados y doctrina de cortesanos”. In this work, Guevara laid the foundations for the concept of the courtier, and thus, also for the 'court society' described by the seminal and namesake work by Nobert Elias. Guevara, who most certainly had read Baldassarre Castiglione's "Il Cortegiano" (1518)—whom Charles V said of him to be the greatest courtier of his age—brought a different aspect to the figure of the courtier: while the latter's work was a 'behavioral' guide, Guevara described the practical aspects of men surrounding a monarch and differentiated their duties from those who were part of religious orders, in a famous passage in Chapter 1:"En la Religión si se levanta a media noche, es por loar al Señor en el culto Divino; mas en la Corte infinitas veces trasnochan, no por más de cumplir con el mundo."(As far as religion is concerned, if one wakes up in the middle of night, it is to laud the Lord in the Divine worship. But at the court, one stays awake all night infinite times, for no other reason than to keep up with people/ the world (el mundo: people/the world i.e. the world that counts.)Besides the above mentioned controversy, there was another regarding the two chapters on the Danubian Farmer, which appeared in different versions both in the 'Libro Aureo' and the 'Relox de principes' in which, it has been argued that the Farmer is a metaphour for the New World indigenous peoples and the Roman empire is nothing less than the Spanish empire.Antonio was the cousin of Diego de Guevara.".
