Casas, José Gonzalo de las (1826-1894)
Vida
José Gonzalo de las Casas y Quijano fue un notario y lexicógrafo aficionado español del siglo XIX. Las noticias que tenemos sobre su vida son escasísimas, por no decir prácticamente nulas. Desconocemos su lugar de nacimiento, que aconteció en 1826, igual que la calidad de su familia. Por la profesión que ejerció, notario, se le presuponen estudios universitarios de Derecho. Parece que alcanzó una posición relevante en la vida cultural y social del Madrid decimonónico, pues fue decano del Colegio de Notarios de la capital, fundador y director de la revista especializada Gaceta del Notariado (1855-1860) y recibió la Gran Cruz de Isabel la Católica. Falleció en Madrid, en 1894 y con 68 años, rodeados de amplios reconocimientos.
El trabajo filológico de este autor guardó una íntima relación con su interés por el notariado. De hecho, aprovechó el didactismo de la técnica lexicográfica para ordenar todos los conceptos relativos a su disciplina. Así nacieron los diez volúmenes de su Diccionario general del notariado de España y Ultramar, cuyo contenido es el siguiente: tomo I —A— (Imprenta de la Biblioteca del Notariado, Madrid, 1853); tomo II —B-COM— (Imprenta de la Biblioteca del Notariado, Madrid, 1853); tomo III —COM-CUZ— (Imprenta de la Biblioteca del Notariado, Madrid, 1855); tomo IV —D-ENV— (Imprenta de la Biblioteca del Notariado, Madrid, 1855); tomo V —ENV-HUS— (Establecimiento tipográfico de los Sres. Silva y García, Madrid, 1856); tomo VI —I-L— (Imprenta de J. Antonio García, Madrid, 1856); tomo VII —M-PAZ— (Imprenta de J. Antonio García, Madrid, 1857); tomo VIII —PE-QUO— (Imprenta de J. Antonio García, Madrid, 1857); tomo IX —R-S— (Imprenta de J. Antonio García, Madrid, 1857), y tomo X —T-Z— (Imprenta de J. Antonio García, Madrid, 1857).
