Abstract

A Historia Compostellanaé uma crónica escrita na primeira metade do século XII, em Santiago de Compostela, por cónegos desta Igreja e sob a orientação do seu primeiro arcebispo, Diego Gelmírez (1100-1140). Ao registarem os acontecimentos mais importantes da vida deste prelado, que mantinha contactos com personalidades e comunidades de diversos territórios, os cronistas fizeram nesta obra muitas referências geográficas e toponímicas a uma escala alargada, mencionando importantes lugares da Cristandade ocidental. Deste modo, o presente trabalho tem como principal objetivo compreender a imagem que estes redatores criaram de vários territórios do seu tempo e as ideias que transmitiram com essa representação.
