Reeditada varias veces en Italia, fue ampliamente reconocida en Europa traduciéndose al alemán, al francés y al inglés en apenas 15 años. Sin embargo, en castellano no vio la luz hasta 1610 (en Barcelona, por Sebastián de Comellas, parcialmente censurada), cuando ya se había impreso hasta en latín, tras varios intentos infructuosos de publicación de otras traducciones (no menos de 8)(1), y no lo fue en Portugal. ¿Los motivos? Su venta había sido prohibida tanto en Portugal, porque no podía aceptarse sin problemas como fue su incorporación temporal a Castilla y se consideraba que defendía los intereses castellanos, como en España, porque se consideraba que la descripción de cómo transcurrieron los acontecimientos no era nada halagüeña para la Corona. La prueba más evidente fue la publicación por el cronista Antonio de Herrera de sus 'Cinco libros de la historia de Portugal y la conquista de las islas Azores', impreso en 1591, pero escrito en 1586, donde presentaba el acceso de Felipe II a la corona portuguesa como una feliz unión de dos reinos por el ejericicio de derechos legítimos. Y, pese a Herrera, se el relato de Conestaggio de cómo el rey de España se convirtió en Felipe I de Portugal se consideró bastante fiel, aunque llegase a dudarse de quien era el verdadero autor, habiendo quienes atribuyeron erróneamente esta obra a Juan de Silva, conde de Portalegre(2).- // (1) Montserrat Casas Nadal: Sobre la difusión de L?Unione del Regno di Portogallo alla Corona di Castiglia de Conestaggio (1585).

Edizione originale di quest'opera di storia e cronaca contemporanea, piu' volte ristampatanel corso del Cinquecento e del Seicentoe tradotta anche in francese, inglese, latino e spagnolo, sull'unione dinastica della penisola iberica che perduro' fino al 1640, anno della restaurazione portoghese. Nel 1578 il re Sebastiano I del Portogallo mori' in Marocco nella battaglia di Alcazarquivir senza lasciare eredi. Dopo lacrisi dinastica che si apri', Filippo II di Spagna assunse il trono portoghese. Nei confronti di Sebastiano, che con la sua morte diede avvio alla crisi, l'A. ha un atteggiamento ambivalente: da un lato rispetta ed omaggia il re crociato, dall'altro condanna politicamente la spericolatezza dell'impresa in Marocco. Adams I, p.308 n. 2502, Graesse II, 247. Piantanida, p. 116, afferma che l'A. di quest'operae' Joao De Silva "che accompagno' Don Sebastiano in Africa, come ambasciatore di Spagna e che in quest'opera si approprio' il nome del Conestaggio".

A very good copy, with good margins, in early vellum over boards, later label, covers bordered with double blind rule, a little soiled. First edition of the English translation of this most interesting history generally attributed to Juan de Silva, conde de Portalegre; the work deals with the recent history of the kingdoms of Spain and Portugal prior to and during the union of their crowns. "A history and description of Portugal and the East Indies containing a royal genealogy starting in 1090, a geographical description, Portuguese exploration and an anecdotal account of the wars between Portugal and Spain. Translated by Edward Blount (?) who had it printed in folio by Arnold Hatfield in 1600. . Scott suspects that the real author was Juan de Silva, fourth Count of Portalegre, who concealed himself behind the name of Girolamo Franchi de Conestaggio. Dedicated to Henry Wriothesley, third Earl of Southhampton by Edward Blount. No later edition." A Bibliographical Catalogue of Italian Books Printed in England 15581603. Of particular interest is its treatment of the voyages of discovery and of Portuguese colonial expansion, especially in Africa (in battles against the Moors), Asia and the Southern Americas, its description of the states of the Colonies (e.g. Brazil apparently was only a penal colony while the Moluccas were prized for their cloves and nutmeg), and the role of the Jesuits in state affairs. Contemporary events in Europe are not ignored. The House of Hapsburg and the Prince of Orange figure fairly frequently and even the story of the request of aid from the people of Ireland to the Pope, against Queen Elizabeth I is recorded. The work begins with the genealogy of the Kings of Portugal from 1090 to 1527. The translation is almost certainly by Edward Blount (1565-1632), though it was also attributed to Marlowe, publisher and translator into English of a number of popular Spanish and Italian works of the day, including the first English edition of Cervantes. Interestingly the work has a double Shakespeare connection. It is dedicated by Blount to Henry Wriothesley, Earl of Southampton, Shakespeare's close friend and patron and Blount, of course, with Jaggard, was the publisher of Shakespeare's great first folio. The early autograph could well be that of John Johnson of Cranbrook (16621725) the theologian who published several theological works in the Laudian tradition. STC 5624. Lowndes II, 508.
