| Summary: | <p>This study aims to analyze what kind of political culture adopted the Castilian nobility of the fifteenth Century. First, will be analyzed the definitions of political culture that manage social scientists and historians. Second, are analyzed several historical studies on political culture and nobility in Castile, and the problems to understand the behaviors and values of the nobility in the Middle Ages. Thirdly, a different definition of political culture is proposed: the category of <em>culture of politics</em>, with ideas about governance and responsibility (idea of the common good). The Castilian nobility adopted this culture, and an analysis of discourse used by nobles<em> </em>on <em>Seguro de Tordesillas </em>(Conde de Haro, 1439) indicates the degree of politicization of the Castilian nobility.</p> |
