As It requires rules, This event takes place in Spanish and English; also, the three requested Excellence in English Language, why which extended the research and exhibition in this language.

Sofia Garcia gil: infections Cross at the institute. Tanks and doorknobs as a source of infection

Ana Salvador Cord: Learning language online

Nouhaila Mountasar: Analysis of Guiton Honofre (1604), picaresque novel by Gregorio González

As sometimes They asked former students, in addition to the Educational Excellence in high school, Excellence in English Linguistics, so much of his exhibition was developed in this language; student Ana Salvador, without embargo,  he asked in French.

Professor Jesus Cáseda, author of this study,  He attributes the composition of Primero a character belonging to the nobility of the sixteenth century Toledo, Bernardino Illan de Alcaraz, cleric, maestrescuela University of Toledo and judeoconverso. For it provides many relevant data to prove it.

This study shows that, most likely, the author of Primero is Bernardino Illan de Alcaraz. This is a son of the secretary of the Catholic Monarchs, Isabel and Fernando, Chancellor of the University of Toledo and canon of the cathedral of that city. Is, also, known member of a family close to erasmistas judeoconversos.Muy Ideas, as we are seen in the profile of the University professors who runs, This is a maverick who suffered the persecution of the Archbishop of Toledo, Juan Martínez Silíceo. In addition, supporter of communities, saw his family paid dearly for his showdown with Carlos V, Losing the title of Counts of Cedillo.Se he is buried in the Church of the Savior - named in the work through its title as archpriest of San Salvador- very close to a Visigoth pilasters where are represented the miracle of the blind and resurrection of Lázaro.El name Lazarillo, on the other hand, conceals his own name: Bernardino IllNA Alca.once.Y, among other tests, two substantial are provided: the Count alluded to the work of Arcos is his carnal nephew; and the continuation of the second part, Juan de Luna, He is also familiar nephew grandson hers. This then recognizes, on the other hand, her aunts recite entire sections of the work, most likely to be knowledgeable of the authorship of the work, his uncle Bernardino Illan de Alcaraz.Estos and other items listed in the study indicate that, most likely, the author of Primero was this curious character who could barely see his work published, since shortly after leaving the press he died. The fact not to publish any other literary work has greatly hindered its identification as the author of the great work that opens the genre of picaresque novel in Spain.
