Rodrigo de Cuero’s Historia de Inglaterra is a translation into Castilian of the Cronycle of Englonde with the Fruyte of Tymes made at the request of Catherine of Aragon, Queen of England, in 1509. Asked with the responsibility of completing the chronicle until her arrival at England, the translator had to draw on the most diverse sources. The paper analyses, firstly, what sources Rodrigo de Cuero used for the elaboration of his work; secondly, it deals with how he organized the material and made the two preserved versions (Escorial and Salamanca manuscripts); and, thirdly and last, it focuses on the treatment of the English kings before Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon (Henry VI, Edward IV, Edward V, Richard III and Henry VII).
