  • Los Viajes Del Caballero Inglés John Breval a España Y Portugal: Novedades Arqueológicas Y Epigráficas De 1726
    Los viajes del caballero inglés John Breval a España y Portugal: novedades arqueológicas y epigráficas de 1726 ALICIA M.ª CANTO* Amicus Plato, sed magis amica veritas (Arist., Nicom. I, 4; Cerv., Quixot., 2.51) RESUMENLa accidentada vida del caballero John D. Breval (c. 1680-1738), clasicista del Tri- nity College de Cambridge, conocido literato inglés y preceptor de nobles en el «Grand Tour», incluyó una etapa como militar y hombre de confianza del Duque de Marlborough. Como militar y preceptor, viajó al sur de Portugal y España en tres ocasiones, entre 1708 y 1716. A su paso por muchas ciudades del Alentejo y Andalucía tomó múltiples notas sobre sus anti- güedades y copió 49 inscripciones romanas, la mayor parte de las cuales por autopsia. En 1726, al publicar en Londres sus Remarks on several parts of Europe (dedicado al futuro conde de Cholmondeley), incluyó al final sus notas ibéricas, acompañadas de un nutrido aparato de textos antiguos y bibliografía de su época. En este trabajo presentamos, además de algu- nas novedades biográficas sobre el autor, la traducción al español de los citados capítulos, acompañada de nuestro estudio crítico. Los epígrafes y los detalles sobre ellos que transmite Breval resultan ser un valioso testimonio para nuevas lecturas, consideración de falsos como auténticos, etc. Nuestra investigación sirve, pues, para devolver a John D. Breval su buen cré- dito como transmisor de inscripciones romanas (damnatus por Theodor Mommsen y Emil Hübner en el CIL II), y junto con él también el del gran humanista portugués Andrés de Resende, muchas veces tachado de falsario, a nuestro juicio injustamente.

Top EDITORIAL This section of the magazine has always attempted to be a chronicle of the life and events of the College. The articles of this .issue do not quite cover all the points of interest which have occurred during the last year, consequently a brief foreword is required. First of all we are bound to express our great debt of gratitude to Very Reverend Father Guilly for his deep interest in our welfare. Father Guilly was once a boy in a Jesuit College and later had the happiness of instructing the young in another. He has therefore, apart from a theoretical understanding of school problems, practical experience gained at each side of the master's desk. This understanding and experience he has put at the disposal of the College. Last year, Fathers fresh from England came to join the staff.
