Libro de Hieronimo de Carança natural de Seuilla, que trata de la Philosophia de las armas y de su destreza y de la aggressio[n] y defension christiana

Jerónimo Sánchez de Carranza

Principal Carranza printed witness line. The local anchor already preserved the 1582 circulation, while Gelli also cites a very rare 1560 witness under closely related wording. The record keeps the 1582 anchor and exposes the earlier witness publicly rather than splitting uncertain duplicates without fuller collation.

Castle preserves both the 1569 San Lucar state and the 1582 Lisbon witness for Carranza, exposing the earlier state without splitting the work family.

Leguina 1891 gives the 1582 printing at Sanlucar de Barrameda and explicitly rejects a separate 1569 printed edition, while Vigeant 1882 reports a Lisbon 1582 witness. The local record keeps 1582 as canonical and treats the differing place reports as bibliographical witnesses within the same work family.

BNE review 2026-09-18: The work is a printed treatise, not a manuscript. The exact BNE copy resolves the principal imprint as Sanlúcar de Barrameda, 1582; earlier secondary Lisbon reporting remains only as a witness conflict.
