Entreteniment i entreteniments en la cort d?Alfons el Magnànim (1424-1430).
2019
Resum: El propòsit d’aquest article és analitzar les formes d’entreteniment en la cort reial aragonesa a principis del segle XV, concretament, en el període entre 1424 i 1430 en què el rei Alfons el Magnànim (1416-1458) s’estableix a València. Amb d’aquest estudi volem establir quines són les activitats lúdiques del rei i dels nobles (justes, cacera, entreteniments musicals i qualsevol altre tipus de jocs i espectacles) i determinar quina era la missió d’aquestos jocs i passatemps en l’organització de la cort, la diplomàcia i les relacions del rei amb els aristòcrates o, encara, en la propaganda reial.Paraules clau Alfons el Magnànim, cort, jocs, noblesa, entreteniment.Abstract: The main pu…
Much ado about nothing? The intendant, the gentilshommes and the investigations into nobility in Burgundy (1664-1670)
2008
In 1664 Louis XIV did not spare the Burgundian nobles where furnishing proof of their entitlement to nobility was concerned. His quest for usurpers, which occurred throughout the French kingdom, generated severe misgivings among the gentilshommes, those nobles who had the right to sit in the provincial estates and feared that members of their Chambre would suffer pointless harassment. However, the process was conducted in an unexpectedly lenient manner, demonstrating that royal authority—through its local representative, the intendant Claude Bouchu—could be employed in a conciliatory fashion. The monarchical system, negotiated as much as imposed, should be understood within the framework of…
Estudi de les fonts d’una Epistula de amore d’Antonio Beccadelli adreçada al valencià Francesc de Centelles (1437-1442) sobre la «vis, aut potestas» …
2018
Resum: La política expansionista de la Corona d’Aragó vers el Mezzogiorno italià, encapçalada per Alfons el Magnànim durant la primera meitat del segle XV, va suposar que el monarca formara al seu voltant una cort d’humanistes italians perquè deixaren constància escrita de la seua empresa i transmeteren a la seua cort els coneixements dels grans autors clàssics llatins i grecs. Aquesta nòmina de lletraferits en estudis grecollatins, en què trobem Lorenzo Valla, Guiniforte Barzizza, Bartolomeo Facio i Antonio Beccadelli (el Panormita), entre d’altres, mantingueren assíduament contacte amb membres de la cancelleria reial i de la noblesa. Un d’aquests nobles va ser el cavaller valencià, camarl…
The Gifts to Sicilian Sanctuaries from Spanish Viceroys and Local Nobility
2018
In seventeenth-century Sicily, worship, and the devotion that the noble and aristocratic classes in particular felt for the island’s main sanctuaries and the images that were venerated in them, stimulated the production of the decorative arts. Spanish viceroys and vicereines, and noblemen and women, commissioned many objects in order to offer them to the most important Sicilian sanctuaries as a sign of profound devotion and political power. The strong, intense presence of the Spanish nobility in Sicily explains the Spanish stylistic influences, which are manifested in the Sicilian production of decorative art objects, and especially in jewellery, an aspect that went hand in hand with fashio…
L'alta noblesa catalana en la conquesta de València
1996
The studies about the conquest of Valence by the king Jaume I during the Xlllth century had emphasized the more great participation of the Aragonese nobility rather than the Catalan, so in the war as in the repartition of the land and the seigniories. Also it's affirmed that the Aragonese people remained in the Vanencian country, though the Catalans only came by religious reasons and went back to their land. This paper revises all the royal documents of the chancellery, the donations of the Repartiment and also the chronique of the king Jaume I, and demonstrates the opposed situation. The participation of the catalans nobility in the conquest of Valencia was very important —more than 150 kn…
Rodrigo de Mendoza, I Marqués del Cenete y I Conde del Cid: paralelismos entre su biografía y su pretendida genealogía = Rodrigo de Mendoza, First Ma…
2018
El Gran Cardenal de España quiso, al legitimar a sus hijos nacidos de sendas relaciones ilícitas, consolidarlos como miembros de la nobleza castellana. Así fue, por ejemplo, con su primogénito Rodrigo, I marqués del Cenete y I conde del Cid, emparentado por voluntad paterna con Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, el Cid Campeador. Al apropiarse de esta ficticia genealogía, el prelado dotaba al mayorazgo legado a éste de un simbolismo que, a medida que el marqués fue madurando y curtiéndose en las guerras de Granada, las campañas italianas y las Germanías de Valencia, cobraba mayor verosimilitud a través de sus actos y acciones. El objeto de este trabajo es aproximarnos al perfil biográfico de Rodrigo de…
