Introduction: This research is focused on analyzing the main features and attributes of Magallanes during the circumnavigation of the globe according to Pigafetta’s and Francisco Albo diaries. Methods: The study has develop a framing analysis as a qualitative methodology in order to examine the information that Pigafetta and Francisco Albo published on their diaries. Results: The main results shows that the frame «hero» has been the most used by Pigafetta. On the other hand, the frame «travel» was the most used by Francisco Albo. Discussion and conclusions: Frames and attributes influence on how public opinion understand and appreciate the figure of Magallanes: Pigafetta’s diary deified the profile of Magallanes, but Francisco Albo’s diary tends to miss out any detail about the figure of this Portuguese navigator and puts his achievements into the background. © 2019, University of La Laguna.
