ABSTRACT

During the fifteenth century, Castilian nobles were subject to criticism in chronicles and other literary texts. Titled nobles, especially those who were closest to the royal court, were particularly hard-hit by these discourses. Some of these aristocrats stand out for the intensity of the diatribes suffered, especially Juan Pacheco, Marquis of Villena, whose political influence would, to a large extent, shape political relations in Castile in the second half of the fifteenth century. The time is ripe for a reassessment of the public image of this figure from a new perspective on medieval political discourses and criticism. The aim of this study, therefore, is to analyse the de-legitimising strategies deployed around his figure, in relation to both his political role in the kingdom at large and his local influence in various cities and regions.

摘要

在十五世纪，卡斯蒂利亚贵族在编年史和其他文学作品中受到批评。封号贵族，尤其是那些最接近皇室的贵族，尤其受到这些话语的打击。其中一些贵族因遭受的谩骂而脱颖而出，尤其是维莱纳侯爵胡安·帕切科，他的政治影响将在很大程度上塑造十五世纪下半叶卡斯蒂利亚的政治关系。从中世纪政治话语和批评的新角度重新评估这个人物的公众形象的时机已经成熟。因此，本研究的目的是分析围绕他的形象部署的去合法化策略，与他在整个王国的政治角色以及他在各个城市和地区的当地影响力有关。
