Abstract
The works written by Don Juan Manuel between 1302 and 1325 are characterized together by presenting parallelisms with the narrative production of Alfonso X. On the basis of the idea of a “neoalphonsin proyect”, we will study the possibility that these works of Don Juan Manuel had been part of a political program with specific purposes, located within the framework of the confrontetions for tutoring during the minority of Alfonso XI. In order to achieve this, we will study the author’s Political-biographical and ideological-cultural context, noticing how both relate when we interpret the emulation performed of the Wise King.
