Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history of hunting in Spain, unveiling a rich tapestry of customs, practices, and the profound connection between the monarchy and the art of hunting. At its core lies a centuries-old debate regarding the true authorship of a renowned hunting treatise known as the 'Book of the Monteria.' Traditionally attributed to King Alfonso X, the author argues that the text is in fact the work of his great-grandson, King Alfonso XI, basing this on meticulous textual analysis and historical context. The book unravels the intricacies of the debate, presenting compelling evidence to support the claim that the 'Book of the Monteria' emerged during the reign of Alfonso XI, situating it firmly within the broader context of medieval Spanish literature and hunting practices. The author's examination sheds light on the evolution of hunting techniques, the role of the monarchy in shaping these practices, and the cultural significance of hunting in shaping the fabric of Spanish society. Ultimately, this book offers a fresh perspective on a pivotal work of Spanish literature, challenging long-held assumptions about its origins and revealing the profound insights it offers into the history and significance of hunting in medieval Spain. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
