Abstract
Este es el primer estudio parcial de una serie que estamos elaborando sobre la magnífica colección
documental de Privilegios Rodados que custodia el Archivo de la Casa Ducal de Medinaceli, un buen
número de ellos inéditos. De casi el centenar de pergaminos originales que constituye la colección, los
seis primeros privilegios fueron emitidos por la cancillería del rey de Castilla Alfonso VIII entre los años
1175 y 1212. Este monarca fue el primero que intituló en Castilla privilegios con signo rodado y sello
de plomo pendiente, sin duda el tipo documental más admirado desde la Edad Media por su solemnidad,
belleza, elegancia, prestancia, jerarquía, vistosidad, fiabilidad y perdurabilidad. En estos ejemplares ya
se vislumbran esas características y las formalidades de las que se rodearon estos documentos medievales
para garantizar su autenticidad. El estudio va precedido de una introducción dedicada a los orígenes
del privilegio rodado en las cancillerías hispanas.
This is the first partial study of a serie which we are elaborating about the magnificient documental collection of “Privilegios Rodados” which is watched over in the Ducal Archive of Medinaceli, a good number of them unpublished. From nearly a hundred of original rolls that constitute the collection, the first six privilegios were emited by the Royal Chancellery of the king of Castile, Alfonso VIII, between 1175 and 1212. This monarch was the first that entitled in Castile privilegios with signo rodado and hanging lead seal, undoubtedly the documental type more admired from the Middle Age for its solemnity, beauty, elegance, performance, hierarchy, brightness, reliability and durability. In these copies, it can be discerned that characteristics and the formalities of the ones that these medieval documents were surrounded in order to guarantee its authenticity. The study is preceded by an introduction dedicated to the origins of the privilegio rodado in the hispanic chancelleries.
