Resumen de La ciudad con el rey: municipio, monarquía y ritual cívico en Zaragoza bajo Felipe III (1598-1621)
This paper studies the development of civic rituals at Saragossa during the reign of Philip III (1598-1621). The research shows significant transformations taking place in these ceremonials as a result of a necessary new expression of the political relations between king and kingdom after the uprising of 1591. These modifications reveal not only the increasing importance of royal representatives in these civic rituals, but the growing significance of a more private concept and practice of municipal government and local political power during the seventeenth century.
