    (2015-09-23) Barrios Sotos, José Luís
    The influence of Aristotle's thinking on Alonso de Madrigal's, el Tostado, work De optima politia is analysed in this article. Special relevance is attached to the fact that this 15th century author, a supporter of conciliarism, defends the convenience of democracy and not monarchy.

    El ‘Efecto Princesa’ en las Fuerzas Armadas: un análisis de la visibilidad mediática con Google Trends
    (Oxbridge Publishing House, 2025) Pérez-Cárceles, María-Concepción; Fernández Valera, María Magdalena; Martínez-Martínez, Dolores-Fuensanta; Nicolás Martínez, Catalina; Economía Aplicada; Facultad de Ciencias del Trabajo
    Princess Leonor has garnered significant media interest since her birth. Her popularity has been driven by both traditional and digital media, especially upon reaching adulthood, that coincides with the beginning of her military training. News about the princess is abundant and diverse, covering almost all her official and unofficial engagements. In particular, her current military training is especially appealing from a media perspective, not only due to its institutional significance as the future Queen of Spain and supreme commander of the Armed Forces but also because of the novel image of a military princess. This study examines whether the media relevance of Princess Leonor’s incorporation into the army influences the visibility of an institution as traditional as the Spanish Armed Forces. The methodology is based on data analysis using the Google Trends tool from January 2023 to July 2024. The results show a positive correlation between search trends for the term ‘Princess Leonor’ and those related to the Armed Forces. In other words, when interest in the princess rises, searches for military-related terms also increase. This correlation is particularly significant during her military training period. Thus, the initial hypothesis is confirmed through the so-called ‘Princess Effect’, which we define as the visibility gained by the Armed Forces due to the media impact generated by Princess Leonor’s military training on her path to becoming Captain General of the Armed Forces.

    Promoción en las carreras eclesiásticas mediante el servicio diplomático de los reinos de Portugal y Castilla (1378-1480)
    (Ediciones Complutense, 2024-05-16) Vigil Montes, Néstor; Prehistoria, Arqueología, Historia Antigua, Historia Medieval y Ciencias y Técnicas Historiográficas; Facultad de Letras
    Los eclesiásticos, como servidores de las monarquías lusa y castellana durante el período bajomedieval, participaron frecuentemente en las embajadas que enviaban para negociar con otras formaciones políticas y, en algunos casos, fueron recompensados por sus monarcas con la promoción en sus carreras eclesiásticas. El análisis de las diversas trayectorias de los eclesiásticos portugueses y castellanos que colaboraron en la diplomacia nos permitirá trazar hasta qué punto fue importante la existencia de estos premios, y si fue habitual la construcción o promoción de carreras eclesiásticas en torno al servicio diplomático.
