ABSTRACT: In this paper the Spanish reception of hieroglyphs, and its outcome, is presented as an important aspect of the process of transmission of hieroglyphs in Early-Modern Europe. This change of perspective is important because it gives a general context for the phenomenon in Spain, clarifies its ties with the rest of the continent through the process of diffusion and –perhaps more relevantly– highlights the distinct characteristics that hieroglyphs assumed in Spain as response to a different mentality, culminating with the creation of what the author regards as «classic Spanish hieroglyphs». KEYWORDS: Hieroglyph, Emblem, Diffusion, Genre. RESUMEN: En este trabajo, dividido en dos partes, la recepcion espanola de los jeroglificos y sus desenlaces se presentan con un aspecto importante del proceso de transmision de los jeroglificos en Europa. Este cambio de perspectiva es importante porque da un marco general para el fenomeno en Espana, aclara sus vinculos con el resto del continente a traves del proceso de difusion de ideas y –quizas lo mas relevante– pone de relieve las caracteristicas distintivas que los jeroglificos lograron en Espana como un reflejo de su adaptacion a una mentalidad diferente, que culmino con la creacion de lo que el autor se refiere como «jeroglificos clasicos espanoles». PALABRAS CLAVES: Jeroglifico, Emblema, Difusion, Genero.
