Abstract

En este artículo se analiza la imagen de César en el reino de Castilla, desde su aparición en textos escritos en lengua vernácula hasta los años finales del siglo XV. La evolución del tema refleja los cambios ideológicos de la sociedad castellana en este período: si en una primera época es presentado como soberano ejemplar y ancestro de la nación, en el siglo XV ilustra, además las virtudes que debe tener el gobernante, la fugacidad de la gloria terrena, y, en las últimas décadas de la centuria, el ideal de caballero instruido, que conjuga las armas y las letras.

Abstract

This paper deals with the image of Caesar in the Crown of Castile, from its emergence in texts in vernacular language to the late Fifteenth Century. The evolution of this topic reflects the ideological changes occurred in the Castilian society in that ample period: the firsts approaches to Caesar depicted him as the exemplar sovereign and the nation’s ancestor, but in the Fifteenth Century his image embraced, too, the virtues expected from any ruler, the fleetingness of worldly glories and, in the late decades of the century, the ideal of the educated knight that combines arms and letters.
