Abstract

The present study looks at the basic trends in studying the phenomenon of black legend and its influence on Charles V and his image in Spanish and European history. The historiographic tradition is classified into stages according to the changes in interpreting the monarch’s life, his political, economic and cultural contribution into Spanish historical development. The approaches to Charles V’s reign are also analyzed from geographical point of view. The attitudes to Charles V are analyzed from various angles. On the one hand, the key factor is the relation between estimations and associations with Philipp II. On the other hand, the reference mark is the imperial status of Spain, which provoked diversity in interpretations. In conclusion the authors highlight the importance of obtaining a clear and unbiased outlook on the problem.
