Este estudio aporta diversa documentación archivística para identificar al «Costana» que aparece en el Cancionero general (1511), autor de nueve composiciones poéticas. Se trata, probablemente, del comendador Francisco de la Costana, burgalés, miembro de la corte de la reina Isabel de Castilla, casado con Isabel Serrano y cuya descendencia, o al menos una parte, creo haber localizado. Identifico a otros miembros de su familia y establezco su naturaleza conversa. Descendiente de comerciantes enriquecidos de Burgos, se hizo cargo del cementerio judío de la ciudad.
This study provides various archival documents to identify the ‘Costana’ who appears in the Cancionero General (1511) as the author of nine poetic compositions. The figure is probably the comendador Francisco de la Costana, from Burgos, and a member of the court of Queen Isabella of Castile. He was married to Isabel Serrano, and this research has likely identified his descendants, or at least some of them. Futhermore, this study identifies other members of his family and establishes their converso origins. A descendant of wealthy merchants from Burgos, he assumed responsibility of the city’s Jewish cemetery.
