Abstract

The couplets 191 to 728 of the Rimado de Palacio display a critic of the society in the 14th century, which scholars have considered inspired in Guillermo Perrault’s Summae virtutum et vitiorum. Nevertheless, what Ayala is doing here is retaking a kind of literature which was to a great extent widespread in France, the genre of the États du monde. This paper intends to describe the poetics of this genre and to show the way in which Ayala adapts it to the reality of the 14th century Castile.
