ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my appreciation to Professor E. H. Hespelt of New York University for his constant aid and encouragement in the preparation of this work. Professors E. W. Billetdoux, R. U. Pane and R. L. Predmore of Rutgers University were very helpful at all times and Professor Casalduero of Middlebury College offered many valuable suggestions. Any errors which this Index may contain are entirely the author's responsibility.

INTRODUCTION Mateo Aleman's Guzman de Alfarache is one of the most significant works of the Spanish literature of the sixteenth century not only because it represents the highest point in the development of the picaresque novel, but also because it is a veritable storehouse of information concerning the life and culture of that time. Like all other works of the same genre, the novel is primarily concerned with portraying the adventures of a picaro or foot-loose rogue, who serves in turn a number of masters. But the actual story of Guzman's experiences forms only a small portion of the entire work. The rest of the pages are taken up with long moralizing passages, tales from classical and medieval sources, descriptions of manners and customs, proverbs, and comments of every sort which have nothing to do with the main plot of the story. In its own day the book enjoyed a tremendous popularity. The insertion into the narrative of these extraneous elements seems not at that time to have offended the reader's taste, but rather to have whetted his appetite. At all events, twenty-six editions of the work, amounting to some fifty thousand copies, appeared within the first six years of its publication. The modern reader, however, has less patience and can easily be discouraged from seeking for gold where he finds so much dross. It is therefore for the pur-

INTRODUCTION

pose of making more easily accessible to him the rich treasure of authentic material on Spanish life and thought in the sixteenth century that this Index has been devised as a complement for the Clásicos Castellanos edition, Numbers 73, 83, 90, 93, and 114 (Madrid, Ediciones de "La Lectura" and Espasa-Calpe, S.A., 1926-1936), edited by Samuel Gili y Gaya. The first problem to be solved before this Index could be compiled was, of course, that of selection. It soon became apparent that it would be impossible to include all those items which might conceivably be of interest to the modern reader and that a compromise had to be made. The Index here presented contains, therefore, references only to the following: 1. Proper names 2. Historical, geographical, biblical, and mythological allusions 3. Proverbs ( R E F R A N E S ) If.. Ballads ( R O M A N C E S ) 5. Tales ( C U E N T O S ) 6. Fables ( F Á B U L A S ) 7. Short Novels ( N O V E L A S ) 8. Interpolated essays and moralizing digressions ( E N S A Y O S INTERPOLADOS Y DIGRESIONES MORALIZADORAS)

9. Subjects indicative of social conditions of the time: a) Arms ( A R M A S ) b) Food ( A L I M E N T O S ) c ) Games ( J U E G O S ) d) Money ( D I N E R O )

Other miscellaneous, unclassified material All entries are in Spanish, and when certain items have been grouped under general categories, they will be found under their Spanish equivalent as outlined above. With capitalized entries, the volume and page number alone are given; with uncapitalized entries, volume, page, and line number are given. C U E N T O S , F Á B U L A S , and R O M A N C E S are arranged in the order in which they appear in the text. R E F R A N E S are arranged alphabetically. All these entries are numbered consecutively, and cross references are made to these numbers. All items in the Index have been entered the first time they appear in the text; subsequent appearances are noted only when they add interesting or informative material.
