Synopsis "Alfonso X of Castile-León: Royal Patronage, Self-Promotion and Manuscripts in Thirteenth-Century Spain (in English)"
Close codicological analysis of particular manuscripts to make new arguments about the existence and organization of the Alfonsine scriptorium, and the revision of the list of manuscripts commonly agreed to have been copied for Alfonso himself Close analysis of the iconography of Alfonso to present new arguments about the role of colour and astrological symbolism in the construction of the royal image The conclusion that Alfonso's literary patronage was part of a propaganda campaign directed towards his court circle, and was not an attempt to formulate a cultural programme for his kingdoms, or a campaign to support educational institutions such as universities.
