Abstract
Al abordar el estudio de la imagen literaria de Carlos V, son cuantiosos los relatos de orden
heroico que exaltan su grandeza. Sin embargo, el escritor argentino Mujica Láinez, en Un
novelista en el Museo del Prado, refleja no sólo eso, sino también su propio temperamento
melancólico a través del Carlos V en la batalla de Mühlberg de Tiziano, la pintura más
emblemática del emperador. En el cuento final de su última novela, el César pretende librar
la batalla más importante de su vida, aquella para la que se preparó en el remoto monasterio
extremeño de Yuste. Se enfrenta a un enemigo difícil, pero no imposible de vencer. Un breve
recorrido, en busca de la gloria eterna, en el que la melancolía es el elemento conductor para
que pintura y poesía se fundan, dando lugar a un retrato muy acertado del que fue emperador
del mundo en el siglo XVI.
When approaching the study of the literary image of Carlos V, the stories of heroic order that exalt his greatness are numerous. However, the Argentine writer Mujica Láinez, in Un novelista en el Museo del Prado, reflects not only that, but also his own melancholic temperament through Titian’s Charles V in the Battle of Mühlberg, the emperor’s most emblematic painting. In the final tale of his latest novel, César intends to fight the most important battle of his life, the one for which he prepared in the remote Extremadura monastery of Yuste. He faces a difficult enemy, but not impossible to defeat. A brief journey in search of eternal glory, in which melancholy is the guiding element so that painting and poetry are founded, giving rise to a very wise portrait of the one who was emperor of the world in the 16th century.
