Abstract

This article is structured around two important unpublished documents, a biography and bibliography, concerning the ever-present field of study of Rosalia de Castro (1837-1885). Successfully transcribed are the first ecclesiastical death certificate Adriano Martinez de Castro (1875-1876), son of the illustrious junior marriage of Rosalia de Castro and Manuel Murguia (1833-1923), who died at very early age in an unfortunate accident at home occurred in Santiago de Compostela. Furthermore we present the poem “¡Hijo mío!”, published in Madrid in 1878, and who happens to be a trove literature, since all indications are that this composition is the original version of the text of a lyric that begins “Era apacible el día” and was included in the first edition of En las orillas del Sar (1884).
