Claudio Sánchez-Albornoz y la preocupación por el método o cómo hacer historia medieval desde América Latina.

This paper explore the contributions of the Spanish medievalist Claudio Sanchez-Albornoz to the development of medieval studies in Latin America and the way in which, through daily practice, he overcame the methodological problems he faced during his early years of exile in Argentina. In this sense, the work highlights the importance of his formative years in Spain, his links with the European medievalism of his period and the good knowledge of the Spanish documentary collections as pillars with which to support his teaching and research work in his Argentinian exile.
