Expreso mi admiración por el profundo trabajo realizado por don Daniel Piedrabuena Ruiz-Tagle en sus dos magnificas obras que he tenido la oportunidad de leer “ Los Lisperguer Wittemberg una Familia Alemana en el Corazón de la Cultura Chilena: identidad y esplendor de la primera familia colonial de Chile” como también su otro libro “El Conquistador Alemán Pedro Lisperguer Wittemberg: de cortesano de Carlos V y Felipe II a célebre precursor de Chile".
Gracias a estas dos eruditas obras, es que por primera vez tenemos la oportunidad de conocer en profundidad la verdadera historia de esta destacada familia llegada a Chile con don Pedro el Conquistador. Don Benjamín Vicuña Mackenna no logro esclarecer aspectos de los cuales el autor trae a luz con erudición. La información que el autor expone es el resultado de una larga investigaciones y compilación de antecedentes históricos de primera fuente, los que expone en sus obras en forma amena y claridad pero a la vez minuciosa y detallada. Con su esfuerzo viene a esclarecer diversos aspectos de la familia Lisperguer en relación a sus vidas, orígenes y desarrollo en Alemania, posteriormente en España y en Chile.

Great book of a family that leaves their own country and establishes themselves in another with all the issues they encounter, which happens to many families that have done so for may centuries when the leave there home country and try to established a foreign country.

I wish to express my admiration for the profound work carried out by Mr. Daniel Piedrabuena Ruiz-Tagle in his two outstanding books, which I have had the opportunity to read: Los Lisperguer Wittemberg: una familia alemana en el corazón de la cultura chilena – identidad y esplendor de la primera familia colonial de Chile, as well as his other work, El conquistador alemán Pedro Lisperguer Wittemberg: de cortesano de Carlos V y Felipe II a célebre precursor de Chile.
Thanks to these two scholarly works, we now have, for the first time, the opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge of the true history of this prominent family that arrived in Chile with Don Pedro the Conquistador. Even Benjamín Vicuña Mackenna was unable to clarify certain aspects that the author now brings to light with great erudition. The information presented is the result of extensive research and the compilation of first-hand historical sources, which the author conveys in a clear and engaging style, while maintaining thoroughness and detail. Through his efforts, Mr. Piedrabuena Ruiz-Tagle has illuminated various aspects of the Lisperguer family—tracing their lives, origins, and development in Germany, later in Spain, and finally in Chile.

Historically interesting and well-written, with plenty of detail — a reference point in the history of this family over the centuries.
