Radio documentary that deals with the figure of Cardinal Cisneros as a man of the Church and of the State at a key time in the history of Spain, the reign of the Catholic Monarchs. Between the Middle Ages and the Modern Age, in the midst of a serious political, dynastic and religious crisis, he stood out for his reforms in the ecclesiastical sphere and for his intervention in political life. Confessor to Isabella the Catholic and, shortly afterwards, archbishop of the primate see of Toledo, his role was fundamental, especially at two important moments: first, at the death of Queen Isabella, and later, after the death of her son-in-law Philip the Handsome. At around the age of seventy, Cisneros took over the regency, from where he contributed to the defence of the monarchical institution. As a cultural patron, he was notable for the creation of a university in Alcalá de Henares and the publication of a Polyglot Bible to correct the translation errors that had accumulated over time. With a script by Modesta Cruz, Documentos RNE takes a closer look at the historical figure of Cardinal Cisneros with the testimony of professors Miguel Ángel Ladero and Antonio Alvar Ezquerra, professor José Luis Gonzalo Sánchez-Molero, and the director of the International Centre for Cisneros Historical Studies at the University of Alcalá, Dolores Cabañas. It also features the opinions of the Hispanist and Prince of Asturias laureate, Joseph Pérez
