Abstract

This article reflects on the transmission process of the literary texts which conform the corpus of the fifteenth century Hebrew cancioneros, and on the difficulties which come across facing the elaboration of an actual critical edition of those contents. These considerations came from coping with the critical edition of Shelomo Bonafed's production which is going to be published next year. Most of these texts are still unedited or unpublished.
