Jesús R. Velasco deposited El Debate Sobre la Caballería en el Siglo XV on Humanities Commons 1 year, 5 months ago
In this book I argue that the political and legal debates regarding chivalry in 15th century Castile unveil the potentialities of chivalry as a social-class building artifact that was used by plebeians to access nobility, by monarchs to reinvent the leading political classes, and by nobility to curb the power of bourgeoisie.

TC Law and the Humanities on MLA Commons 4 years, 7 months ago

This paper deals with the complicated sociopolitical space defined by the use and transformation of what we call Occitan language.
