PORTUGALIÆ Monumenta Historica: Nova Série. Lisboa. 1980. - PORTUGALIÆ Monumenta Historica: Nova Série . Lisboa: Academia das Ciências de Lisboa, 1980. 3 v.; 255 mm. A critical reference edition of medieval books on Portuguese lineages, published by the Lisbon Academy of Sciences in the New Series of Portugaliae Monumenta Historica . Volume I brings together the so-called Old Books of Lineages - the Old Book, from around 1270 and the oldest known testimony of its kind, and the Dean's Book, written between 1337 and 1340 - in a critical edition by Joseph Piel and José Mattoso. The two tomes of volume II reproduce the Book of Lineages of Count D. Pedro , a work attributed to Pedro Afonso, Count of Barcelos, illegitimate son of D. Dinis, composed between 1325 and 1344 and bringing together about seventy-four genealogical titles, in a critical edition by José Mattoso. Essential sources for the genealogical, social, and literary history of the Portuguese medieval nobility, lineage books were, until this edition, practically inaccessible to researchers; the New Series became the reference edition that decisively boosted studies of Portuguese medievalism from the 1980s onwards.
