Cancioneros y profecia : algunas notas sobre el mesianismo durante el reinado de los Reyes Católicos

Abstract

In this work we study the prophetic aspects of several poems dedicated to the Spanish Catholic Kings, and in particular to don Fernando. Conqueror of Granada, a figure prematurely associated with Saint Fernando. the conqueror of Seville. The themes of prophecy and providence found in these  poems are clearly used by their authors, such  as Juan  De Encina, as  a  propagandistic weapon against each other for !heir self-promotion, taking advantage of the atmosphere of that particular period.
