L’édition italienne ne contient que 47 lettres; l’édition anglaise en a 89”. This edition has all the text of the English edition, and yet despite being reduced in format from the 4to edition, has a different pagination and appears to be entirely reset.

“A selection of these illustrations is here rescued from the obscurity of public libraries and the inaccessible recesses of private collections”.
“I resolved, therefore, to give pride of place to the pictorial side of the volume; to abandon the traditions regulating the proportions of prose to pictures; and to make my appeal to the public by the beauty and variety of the illustrations I have collected, and the immensity of elaborate letterpress which I have not written”.

Pascual de Gayangos y Arce, Spanish scholar and Orientalist, was born at Seville on the 21st of June 1809. At the age of thirteen he was sent to be educated at Pont-le-Voy near Blois, and in 1828 began the study of Arabic under Silvestre de Sacy. After a visit to England, where he married, he obtained a post in the Spanish treasury, and was transferred to the foreign office as translator in 1833. In 1836 he returned to England, wrote extensively in English periodicals, and translated Almakkari’s History of the Mohammedan Dynasties in Spain (1840-1843) for the Royal Asiatic Society. In 1843 be returned to Spain as professor of Arabic at the University of Madrid, a post he held until 1881, when he was made Director of Public Instruction. He resigned this office upon being elected senator for the district of Huelva.
His latter years were spent in cataloguing the Spanish manuscripts in the British Museum; he had previously continued Bergenroth’s Catalogue of the Manuscripts relating to England in the Simancas archives. His best-known original work is his dissertation on Spanish romances of chivalry in Rivadeneira’s Biblioteca de Autores Españoles. He died in London on the 4th of October 1897.

Lord Porchester was Henry John George Herbert, and later the Earl of Carnarvon, and wrote extensively about Spain and Portugal. Although his poetry may appear indigestible to some, the eighty-four page preface and the eighty-eight pages of notes will be of great interest to Hispanophiles.
