- Abstract
This paper seeks to highlight the limits and contingencies involving the research behind the historical biographies centered in New Spain. To do this, the characteristics of the materials available are highlighted, considerations around them and, as far as possible, their place in the society of the time. As a way of illustration, the text focuses, first, on a review of the contemporary biography in the context novohispano, particularly three studies about Hernán Cortés. Second, studies the "relación de méritos y servicios", one of the most recurrent materials in the production of these biographies.
