- Title
De la Postilla super Genesim al Nouus commentarius de Alfonso Fernández de Madrigal: historia de un texto.

- Abstract
This work is an approach to Tostado's first work, preserved in autograph manuscripts 13 and 14 of the Library of the University of Salamanca, which is his first commentary on the books of the Pentateuch. It has been erroneously called Glossa super Pentateuchum, and the text in question, the first of the five biblical books, Postilla breuis super Genesim. We show that this text, which lacks any title, is in fact a sort of exegetical "exercise" that the belongs to the genre called postilla and follows very closely the Postilla of Nicholas of Lyra. We suggest as its definitive title Postilla super Genesim. The text is at the base of the monumental Nouus commentarius (the Postilla has 28 pages and the Nouus commentarius 322), preserved in three manuscripts, one of which, from Cáceres, has also been classified erroneously as Postilla and we have identified it as part of the Nouus. After the presentation of all the testimonies and an approach to the genre of postilla, a comparative analysis of Madrigal's two texts is offered.
