The object of this article is to present a historical vision on the acceptance that Axular and his book have had over these three long centuries (Gero, 1643). The article also includes some news on what has been analysed and established in the case of Axular by contemporary research. In this sense, in addition to the opinion that society as a whole has shown on the "urdazubiarra" throughout history, the article also includes the testimony of various Basque writers. Special mention is also made of the areas in which research has been made over these last few years. In this way, in this work we can find, together with contributions to the biography of Axular, the principal circumstances analysed by researchers on his work, from his religious position to linguistic and literary aspects of his work. And, as is demanded by the nature and renown of Gero, preferential attention is devoted to the results of the research on the originality of the book and its prose.
