Resumen
SALAZAR BAENA1 2, VERÓNICA. The Body of King: Power and Legitimation in the Hispanic Monarchy. Front. hist. [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.2, pp.140-168. ISSN 2027-4688.
This article is a historiographic review that approaches the construction of the body of the king and of his public image to understand the relation between power and legitimacy in the Hispanic Monarchy between the XVIth to XVIIth centuries. The article presents the principal historiographics modals on the topic, doing special emphasis in the most recent studies of ceremonial and court labels.
Following this line of investigation, the hypothesis is that the maintenance of the Hispanic monarchy not only depended on coercive strategies but it was determined by the construction of persuasive tools (Soft Power), among others the putting in scene of the king, where there created mostly the perception of cultural consensus inside a vast transatlantic empire.
Palabras clave : Hispanic monarchy; soft power; body of king.
