29.99 €
King Alfonso X the Wise of Castile and Leon (1252-1284) was an outstanding political figure of his time, a king-thinker, king-writer, king-troubadour, king-knight, whose Castilian "thirteenth-century revival" laid the foundations of the modern Spanish language and the Spanish culture of the Golden Age. Deeply and seriously reflecting on Spain's past, the Wise King for the first time conceptualized the political space of his contemporary kingdoms of Leon and Castile, the lands of the Crown of Aragon, Navarre, Portugal and Muslim Granada as a political and cultural unity with a common historical destiny, which in many ways predetermined the future unification of the Spanish lands vedinoye state.
The monograph, written with the participation of prominent medievist historians from Russia, Spain, Argentina, Brazil, Great Britain and some other countries, reflects the current state of research on Alfonso X's contribution to the formation of the foundations of Spanish and European culture. For scholars (historians, philologists, philosophers, political scientists), teachers.
