Snow 1977, no. 259rn"Alfonso's well known disdain for traitors is often vented in the secular cantigas, as in CV 63, on which a useful comment or two can be found here. This disdain may have extended to Alfonso's brother Enrique, and the analysis of CV 61 aims to demonstrate this. The réplica is CV 3793 (attributed to Enrique) and, even if composed for Enrique by another poet, it is seen as a response to the veiled allusions to fraternal treachery Alfonso writes into CV 61." |
