Resumen
Among the various castillian texts handed over to us through the medieval prophetic tradition is the one written by the unknown Juan Unay, which "tells of the great facts that ought to be in the world due to the many and big sins men got involved with at that time". Besides the castillian version (preserved in the form of three different manuscripts, of unequal quality), a summary in castillian and a portuguese translation of the text are available. This essay reviews the problems raised by the text as to its authorship and date of writing, as well as the issues related to its dissemination within the iberian context, both issues which can only be approached from a common perspective.
