Antonio de Nebrija, the first Hispanic humanist

Elio Antonio Nebrija was born in Lebrija (Seville), hence his pseudonym, in 1441. He studied Humanities at the University of Salamanca and continued his philological studies in Bologna, where he became acquainted with Italian humanism. He began his teaching work at the University of Salamanca, to which he devoted much of his life without interruption. Called by Cardinal Cisneros, he went to the University of Alcalá to participate in the edition of the Polyglot Bible, a project he abandoned due to differences with the group of translators. He spent the last years of his life teaching at the University of Alcalá, where he died in 1522.


Throughout his life, the illustrious humanist fought to recover the cultured Latin spoken by Cicero and Quintilian, which was being lost in favour of vulgar speech. To this end, he based himself on the natural method, which was based on a good knowledge of the Romance language - the language of the people - as the best means of preventing the loss of that cultured Latin.
His works include: Introductiones latinae (1481), Lexicon latino-castellanum et castellano-latinum (1492), Gramática castellana (1492) and Reglas de orthographia en la lengua castellana (1517). Of all of them, the most important, due to the impact it has had on Hispanic philology, is the Gramática castellana, the first codification of a modern language, and whose prologue is dedicated to Queen Isabella the Catholic.
