- Abstract:
- The author argues that Juan Manuel’s willingness to embrace Andalusī narrative genres and materials, including a number of proverbs which he quotes in the original Arabic, seems on the surface to run counter to his official narrative of Reconquest. However, this apparent contradiction is typical both of the colonial society in which Don Juan Manuel came of age and of his genre of choice in writing the CL.
