Abstract

This paper looks into the circulation of information routes during Early Modern period. Our hypothesis is that in the last decade of XVIth century, European information system was rather sophisticated so as to conduit the dispersed practices of previous years into a solid business, and was sound enough for news being transmitted all across Europe from one of its ends, Transylvania, to the other, Seville. The paper is based on the study of the news books on the war against the Turks published by printer Rodrigo de Cabrera, first journalistic series in Spain (15951600). To this series, we have added some news sheets unknown till the moment and have found out the source of the news.
