Abstract

The starting point of my analysis is the way in which Alfonso de Cartagena selected and translated his Classic sources, as well as the paraphrases he used in his moral works. This study aims to show how Cartagena promoted the creation of a philosophical lexicon in Castilian. I will compare his proposals with those of his contemporaries, who received certain influence from him. This will show the special characteristics and sharpness of Cartagena’s work.
