A singularidade do discurso trobadoresco de Alfonso X

Abstract

No presente traballo destácase o cancioneiro profano de Alfonso X como a produción máis persoal do monarca, no que se pode percibir a voz propia dun trobador que se acomoda aos canons da tradición trobadoresca europea, ao mesmo tempo que se erixe en cabeza visible dunha corte que se consolida como o espazo más dinámico da lírica trobadoresca peninsular. Para iso analízase o labor de acollida da corte alfonsí das correntes literarias foráneas que logo traslada a súa propia obra, as circunstancias que explican que a súa poética sexa escrita en galego, e as particularidades do seu cancioneiro trobadoresco. O corpus presenta unha complexa tradición manuscrita e uns problemas codicolóxicos, que suscitan aínda hoxe debates entre a crítica (como a fixación e establecemento dos textos). O estudo das súas cantigas mostra que o discurso trobadoresco alfonsí sobresae polo dominio do autor das técnicas marcadas pola escola, así como pola aguda e persoal percepción da sociedade e dos acontecementos históricos do momentoAs we aim to show in this paper, Alfonso X’s profane songbook stands out as his most personal production: in it, we can perceive the distinctive voice of a troubadour who adjusts himself to the European troubadour tradition’s canons, while at the same time emerging as the visible head of a court that consolidates itself as the most dynamic space of the Peninsular troubadour lyric. For this purpose, we analyze how Alfonso’s court accepted and opened itself to foreign literary currents that will soon influence his own work, the circumstances that explain why his poetry was written in Galician, and the singularities of his troubadour songbook. The latter presents a complex manuscript tradition and certain codicological problems, which till today raise debates among the critics, such as the establishment of its corpus. The study of his songs shows that Alfonso’s troubadour discourse stands out due to the Author’s mastery of the school techniques and to his acute and personal perception of the society and the historical events of his time
