The Tubal Figure in Early Modern Iberian Historiography, 16Th and 17Th Century
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Revistes Catalanes amb Accés Obert THE TUBAL FIGURE IN EARLY MODERN IBERIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY, 16TH AND 17TH CENTURY MATTHIAS GLOËL UNIVERSIDAD CATÓLICA DE TEMUCO CHILE Date of receipt: 16th of May, 2016 Final date of acceptance: 13th of September, 2016 ABSTRACT This study is dedicated to the use of the biblical figure Tubal in early modern Iberian chronicles. The focus will be centered on how it is used in different ways in the different kingdoms (Castile, Aragon, Catalonia, Valencia, Portugal and the Basque Provinces and Navarre) and what the authors are trying to achieve through this. Results show that while Castilian authors try to prove Spanish antiquity with the Tubal settlement, in other kingdom, especially in Catalonia, Portugal and Navarre there is a more regional use of the myth. Most of these authors try to prove that their own kingdom is the territory where Tubal settled, which would give a pre-eminence of antiquity to it in comparison to the other Iberian territories. KEYWORDS Early Modern History, Chronicles, Myths, Spanish Monarchy, Tubal. CapitaLIA VERBA Prima Historia Moderna, Chronica, Mythi, Monarchia Hispanica, Tubal. IMAGO TEMPORIS. MEDIUM AEVUM, XI (2017) 27-51 / ISSN 1888-3931 / DOI 10.21001/itma.2017.11.01 27 28 MATTHIAS GLOËL 1. Introduction Myths have always played an outstanding part in human history and they are without any doubt much older than science. This is also valid for chronicles or historiographical works. Christian historians in particular broke up the division between myth and history, which had been established by classical historiography.1 Only pagan stories remained myths, while the Bible gained the recognition of true history.2 Early Modern chronicles from the Iberian Peninsula are no exception to this phenomenon. -
Damian J. Smith ISSN 1540 5877 Ehumanista/IVITRA 7 (2015): 86-92
Damian J. Smith Dinner and Diplomacy in the Deeds of the Conqueror Damian J. Smith Saint Louis University The Llibre dels Fets or Book of Deeds, James I of Aragon’s autobiographical account of many of the major events of his political and military life, was constructed for more than one audience and for multiple purposes (Cingolani, 31-74; Aurell, 39-54). Set down most probably in its entirety during the final years of James’s sixty-three year reign, the Deeds reacted to the official histories designed at the court of the king’s son-in-law, Alfonso X of Castile, and, more immediately, to waspish criticism of James’s own failed attempt to crusade to the Holy Land in 1269 (Cingolani, 75-95). Narrated or performed before his knights and written down by his scribes, the Deeds justified the ways of James to men, while also serving as a guidebook to his sons and successors on how to rule (Badia, 55; Smith, 7). Its structure can only be properly understood when it is remembered that it is designed to inform his successors about the political affairs of the past which he considered relevant to the future. It is for this reason that James dwells on his distant (and faulty) memories of the Aragonese conflicts in his youth, the war in Urgell, and the parleys with Sancho VII of Navarre (Smith, 7). It is equally the reason why he does not mention the treaty of Corbeil with Louis IX of France. The former were all matters that still needed resolution. -

INDEX OF PERSONS page 300 INDEX OF ARTISTS page 306 PREFACE HE first and only catalogue of the collection of medals formed by Gustave Dreyfus appeared in I93 I. Its author was Sir George Hill, who had studied the collection in depth when it was still T in Dreyfus' hands in the Boulevard Malesherbes in Paris. In a prefatory note, Hill observed that 'keenly as Gustave Dreyfus appreciated all his beautiful things, he had a particularly soft place in his heart for the Italian medals, and ... he would have agreed with the German critic who declared that the medallic art was par excellence the art of the Renaissance, the expression of the quintessence of the spirit of that age.' The preface continues with the tribute: 'His was perhaps the finest collection that has ever been in the hands of a private collector - the "perhaps" might be omitted, but that it is difficult to range the great collections in a true perspective.' Thanks to the Kress Foundation, the Dreyfus collection of medals was not dispersed, like so many other medallic collections, but is preserved intact in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, where it bears out Hill's claim to be regarded as the finest private collection of medals ever to have been formed. -

Volume 15. Number 3 November/fkccmber 199 1 How convenient that thirty inches of snow fell forcing me indoors to work on the Newsletter! The side I dance with. The Ramsey's Braggarts, even had to cancel our tradition Halloween Night Tour because we were snowed out! Maybe this issue will even arrive early to people. I am a little loath of setting a new precedent, however. My professional schedule seems only to get more harried. I continue to apologize to those whose correspondence lies waiting for an answer. I will continue to keep apace as best as I can. Thank you for your patience. This issue has two wonderful articles. Steve Corrsin from New York City has written about his experiences with longsword dancing on the European continent, specifically in Belgium. P.A.M. Borys completes her series of articles on the history of morris with an archival calendar listing of morris events over the centuries. Lots of letters and team news has also been received to make this a full issue indeed. Enjoy the reading. Enjoy the winter season if you have one. Greetings for a New Year filled with dancing and friendship for all. As noted in ha previous issue, one of the majw changes in the #omrat-of A MN is the adWon ot a nprbsuies featuring a major article on mqrris hiswy 0r events. The flrsl issue of hat series should come to you the end of Jamaq or early February. r &.

D’Abadal i Vanyals and Ferràn Valls Taberner, Usatges de Barcelona, Textes de Dret Català, 1 (Barcelona: Caritat, 1913)1 [CD trans.]2 [In marked contrast to most of the Spanish fueros and French coutumes, this work exists in both Catalan and Latin versions, of which the Latin seems to be the older. The earliest ms. dates from the late 13th century. In the early 15th century an “official” version of the Usatici was adopted. The Usatici purports to have been promulgated by the count of Barcelona, Raymond Berenger I and his wife Almodis, and a 12th century chronicle gives the date as 1068. Most scholars today believe that the version we have dates from the middle of the 12th century (with some later additions), though it may well include older elements. The order of the original manuscripts is somewhat chaotic, and we make no attempt here to make sense of it. There are 174 numbered paragraphs in the official version with no rubrics. Some of the paragraphs are quite short, as can be seen below; the longest (an elaborate form of oath for a Jew to take if he is to testify against a Christian) runs about four printed pages. By and large, the lower-numbered paragraphs seem to be earlier. We give the first few articles, and all of those relevant to marriage, witnesses and wild animals.

Eginbidea. Gobernu aitatiarra. Artzain erregetza. Mat xinada. Habsburgotarren Espainia. Las relaciones interpersonales como la fidelidad y la obediencia eran básicas en las sociedades del Antiguo Régimen, ya que derivaban de principios superiores (amor, caridad, beneficencia), que implicaban jerarquía y reciprocidad. Como otras monarquías compuestas, la España de los Austrias se enfrentaba a la tarea de asegurar la lealtad a un rey común mientras mantenía su heterogeneidad política. Cuando aumentaban las presiones fiscales y militares, paradójicamente la fidelidad podía aportar argumentos convincentes para una revuelta, ya que se entendía que aquélla tenía sus propios límites. Palabras clave: Fidelidad. Obediencia. Obligación. Gobierno paternal. Realeza pastoral. Revuelta. La España de los Austrias. Issues de principes supérieurs (amour, charité, bienfaisance) impliquant à la fois une hiérarchie et une réciprocité, la fidélité et l’obéissance étaient des valeurs interpersonnelles essentielles dans les sociétés de l’Ancien Régime.
