A Produção Trovadoresca de Afonso X: 3. Os Cantares da Guerra (Composições e Cronologias)

Abstract

ln the troubadour poetry of Alphonso X, namely in his satirical works, the songs about the attitudes and behaviors of different individuals or social groups in view of the military activity in which the king was involved during the course of his reign clearly stand out. This study focuses precisely on the analysis of the group of songs that have been associated to this activity. lt attempts not only to define with a greater accuracy the core of works with a war theme, but also to reflect on the conflicts underlying the same works, with a view to clarify the historical background in which they were written.
