Snow 2007rn"The Cantigas de Santa Maria that treat of Cadiz and its surrounding area are found to be remarkably accurate on a number of historical details, despite the fact that the principal aim of the narrations was to feature to Virgin's miraculous interventions in the affairs of mankind. Two compositions are studied, CSM 328 and 345 (Spanish prose translations accompany the Galician-Portuguese originals at the end of the commentary)." |
