Original title: Paral·lelismes entre la intercessió mahometana i el Llibre del gentil e dels tres savis. Una altra perspectiva

The parliament of the Saracen in the Llibre del gentil e dels tres savis exemplifies Ramon Llull's way of showing us the cultural and religious elements that revolve around Islam. We will see how easy it is to see the degree of fidelity that underlies the parliament of the Saracen if we compare it with the Koran and the Sunna. On the one hand, the Lullian vision of the Islamic religion will be analysed. On the other hand, the aim is to highlight the respectful way in which Ramon Llull treated both the Muslims in his work and Islam, which was far removed from the aspirations of the time.

Original title: Bandolers catalans a la guerra de las Alpujarras: la companyia de don Antic Sarriera

The War of the Alpujarras was one of the central conflicts of the end of the 1560s for Philip II. The mobilization was massive and urgent in many cases, with the participation of a large part of the Castilian cities and the deployment of contingents that would offer support for the war but would cause severe discipline problems. Catalonia was not alienated from this mobilization. Among the nobles and specific personalities, the bandit soldiers of Antic Sarriera stood out. Both their leader and this contingent, raised in Girona’s counties, with special attention to Empordà, left a documentary trace that will be analysed in this study.

Original title: La mala vida d’uns, conseqüències per a les altres: els “vividors” i el seu entorn en el Regne de Mallorca (segles XVI-XVII)

The literature, the theatre, and the art of the Baroque period usually showed the archetype of the drunk man who took refuge in the tavern of his life. This figure existed in popular society, where the types were diversified, and vices expanded. If you pay attention to the documentation, there are several cases of men of bad life whose behaviour had serious consequences on the women in their environment, which would be summed up in violence and poverty. To emerge from this situation, these women used different strategies such as seeking support from acquaintances and family members, but also from the institutions of the Kingdom of Majorca.

Original title: La memòria de les pestes a l’antic Regne de València: de la nota marginal a la centralitat (s. XV-XVII)

This article takes a look at the Valencian memorial literature that contains information on the different waves of plague, from the 14th to the 17th century. The plague goes from being a “marginal” to a "central" theme. It moved from brief annotations to specific narration, with works such as those by Francesc Gavaldà and Vicent Arcaina. Bartomeu Ribelles, at the end of the 18th century, was the first to make a study of epidemics in Valencia.

Emilio CALLADO ESTELA

Original title: Descarrío y purgación del chantre de la catedral de Orihuela Domingo Bou y Miralles

This article analyzes the case of the cantor of the cathedral of Orihuela, Domingo Bou y Miralles, whose love affairs with a young widow would earn him exile between 1691 and 1692, at the request of the local bishop Antonino Sánchez de Castellar and by order of the crown. A little more than half a year of purgation at court was enough for the pre-blessed, it seems, to stop join astray and return to the fold, since then giving himself up to the ecclesiastical office that was his own.
