Abstract

Desde 1961 la Casa Colón posee el Fondo Ballesteros. Comprado en un primer momento para proporcionar un fondo bibliográfico a la naciente Biblioteca Colombina. El Fondo Ballesteros constituye hoy por hoy uno de los fondos más interesante dentro del panorama de los archivos y bibliotecas históricos de esta isla. El interés que despierta al investigador viene sin duda marcado por la naturaleza de los mismos. No viene generado por organismos ni diversas instituciones o personas, ni siquiera podemos denominarlos fondos familiares sino que su origen parte de una labor productiva, concretamente los instrumentos materiales, manuscritos, instituciones y personas que aportaron directa e indirectamente en el desarrollo de la vida social y profesional de dos grandes historiadores: Antonio Ballesteros y Mercedes Gaibrois. Conocer las líneas de investigación de este fondo comprende también, conocer el desarrollo personal, intelectual y social de este «matrimonio». Una simbiosis que se plasma no sólo a nivel familiar sino a nivel profesional. Donde no se puede entender la obra medieval, moderna, universal y americanista de Ballesteros sin la sombra de Gaibrois. Sombra que se alarga por razones familiares, sociales y lo más interesante, ideológicas hasta Canarias.

The Fund Ballesteros constitutes today per today one of the funds but interesting inside the panorama of the files and historical libraries of this island. Their main characteristic is the peculiar of its nature. It is not a fund generated by institutions or people but rather their origin is the productive work of two historians: Antonio Ballesteros and Mercedes Gaibrois. To know the you line of investigation of this Found you must understand the personal development, intellectual and social of this marriage. Because you cannot understand the medieval, modern, universal work and Americanist of Ballesteros without Mercedes Gaibrois. Influences that lengthen for family, social and ideological reasons to the islands Canaries.
