Abstract

Seeking the publication of Nebrija’s «Gramática de la lengua castellana» was an intuitive move on the part of Hernando de Talavera, Isabel the Catholic’s confessor. Talavera sought the promotion of the values found in the concept of State advanced by his benefactors, as well as a new comprehensible means to explain the Christian faith. The use of the romance language as a means of transmission of the values derived from the faith were used in the evangelization of Granada after its conquest along with other writings of the Hieronymite friar, Pedro de Alcalá, who favored the celebration of mass and initial Christian catechism in Arabic.
