T1 The Delegitimisation of Rebel Nobles around the War of the Castilian Succession: Discursive Strategies in Enríquez del Castillo’s and Pulgar’s Chronicles
A1 Corral Sánchez, Nuria
AB In  medieval  Castile,  language  and  propaganda  were  key  aspects  of  political  disputes.    Some    chroniclers    and    poets    contributed    to    legitimisation    and    delegitimisation  processes  by  representing  both  sides  in  their  works.  This  paper  presents a comparative view of the discursive strategies used to discredit the nobles who questioned whether Henry IV of Castile and, later, his successor, Isabella I, were rightful  monarchs.  The  tactics  of  two  chroniclers  in  particular  will  be  examined,  both  of  whom  were  solid  defenders  of  the  royal  authority:  Diego  Enríquez  del  Castillo and Fernando de Pulgar. Their texts, as with other coetaneous chronicles, have never been compared in depth from the perspective suggested above; as such, an analysis could offer some interesting conclusions on the matter.
