Un palacio para un héroe: la representación del Sagrado Palacio Imperial de Constantinopla en el "Tirant lo Blanc"
2014
Joannot Martorell recovers the Gran Palacio Imperial de Constantinople in the Greek chapter of Tirant lo Blanch, in order to provide a symbolic space to the heroic projection of his main character.

Du point de vue de la hiérarchisation verticale des espaces intérieurs, le premier étage est généralement réservé aux fonctions les plus nobles, l'apparat et la réception, tandis que les niveaux bas sont abandonnés aux fonctions de stockage, de cuisine, voire de prison, et les étages supérieurs aux espaces privés et ancillaires (galetas). Les tours et tourelles sont souvent occupées, au bel étage, par d…
