The medieval Castilian King Alfonso X «the Learned» (ruled 1252 - 1284) and his grandson, King Dinis of Portugal (ruled 1279 - 1325), not only were the two most prolific poets of the Galician-Portuguese Cancioneiros but also figured prominently as patrons of culture and the arts. This book examines the influence of Alfonso X and his court on Dinis in the fields of translation, law, higher learning, historiography, and poetry.

This book examines the patterns of conflict between the individual and society as depicted in Spanish medieval and Golden Age literature. The theme of the individual in conflict with society is most significant since it reflects the human condition and consequently serves as the foundation for numerous works written from the twelfth through the seventeenth centuries. Besides providing an introduction to the societal ideals and values underlying early Spanish writings, this book schematizes the basic types of conflict revealed in literature and attempts to clarify why authors selected particular solutions to the kinds of conflict they chose to treat.
