The ''Chronica Naierensis'' or ''Crónica najerense'' (originally edited under the title ''Crónica leonesa'') was a late twelfth-century chronicle of universal history composed at the Benedictine monastery of Santa María la Real in Nájera. In Latin it narrates events from Creation to its own time, with a focus on the Bible, classical history, the Visigothic in Spain, and the kingdoms of Castile and León. It was an important model for later Spanish Latin historiographers, notably the ''De rebus Hispaniae'' of Rodrigo Jiménez de Rada, the ''Chronicon mundi'' of Lucas de Tuy, and the ''Estoria de España'' of the patronage of Alfonso X of Castile. Besides its classical and Biblical authorities, the ''Chronica Naierensis'' relied heavily on material culled from the ''cantares de gesta''. The ''Chronica'' is not an original work in any rigorous sense, but rather a compilation. Its Visigothic history is based squarely on Isidore of Seville and its more recent Spanish history incorporates the ''Corpus Pelagianum'', a work supervised by Pelagius, Bishop of Oviedo, mid-century. The date of the ''Chronicas completion was long dated to 1160, but the 1995 critical edition published by Juan Estévez Sola revised the ''terminus post quem'' to 1173, for it was not until that year that Pedro Coméstor finished his ''Historia Scholastica'', which the ''Chronica'' uses as a source. The ''terminus ante quem'' of the ''Chronica'' can be placed in 1194, the earliest date for the composition of the ''Linage del Cid'', which used it as a source. These dates make it contemporary with the ''Historia Roderici'', though the influence of the latter in the ''Chronica'' is evident. ==Editions== *Antonio Ubieto Arteta (ed.), ''Crónica najerense''.
