Climbing the walls as a method of conquest, set amongst history and legend. From Damascus to Alhama de Granada
Eva LAPIEDRA
Original title: La escalada a las murallas como método de conquista entre la historia y la leyenda. De Damasco a Alhama de Granada
Keywords: City of Brass, Conquest, Giraldo sem Pavor, Literary topos, Reconquest, Storming the walls, Transtextuality.
This article brings together and compares different historical literary texts belonging to the chronicle traditions of both Arabic and Islamic writers and to Latin and Christian chroniclers on the Iberian Peninsula. All of them narrate the surprise conquest of a city using the method of storming and climbing its walls. The continuance of that literary topos through time and space appears to indicate that it was carried from the Arab world to the Latin peninsular Romance across the border between the Almohad empire and the emerging Portuguese empire in the 13th Century. That’s why it appears in Portuguese and Castilian Chronicles, but not in those from Catalonia.
Semantic neologisms in the DOLEV-Natura
Joan de Déu MARTINES LLINARES
Original title: Les novetats semàntiques en el DOLEV-Natura
Keywords: Corpus, Diccionaris, Lexicografia, Lingüística del corpus, Semàntica d’Enric Valor.
This article shows the semantic neologisms hitherto not compiled in reference dictionaries (DIEC2, DDLC, DNV and DCVB) which have been found in the dictionary of the nature of the literary work by Enric Valor (DOLEV-Nature). This has been achieved with the help of the tools of the Corpus Informatitzat Multilingüe de Textos Antics i Contemporanis (CIMTAC) by ISIC-IVITRA. These tools allowed us to compile the corpus of the literary work by Enric Valor (COLEV).
From the sagesse des troubadours to the polite allegory of Ramon Llull
Anna Maria COMPAGNA
Original title: De la sagesse des troubadours al alegorismo cortés de Ramon Llull
Keywords: Laicism, Middle Ages, Ramon Lull, Troubadours.
If certain comparisons between works rarely go beyond superficial analogies, the concept of a figure allows us to frame in a new light the affinity of some of Llull’s works with troubadour poetry, where the lady as a metaphor for Wisdom and as a folkloric epiphany presages what which will be the courteous allegorism of Ramon Llull. The importance that Llull gives to the metaphor finds part of his matrix in the love story of the troubadours.
