The Black Legend propaganda originated in the 16th century, a time of strong rivalry between European colonial powers. Among the first to describe and denounce this phenomenon was Julian Juderias in his book "The Black Legend and the Historical Truth" (Spanish: ), a critique published in 1914 that explains how this type of biased historiography has presented Spanish history in a deeply negative light, purposely ignoring positive achievements or advances. Though the term "black legend" for describing this anti-Spanish mythology was coined by Emilia Pardo Bazan in a conference, Paris, April 18, 1899. Later writers have supported and developed Juderias' critique.
