Resumen
- The continued portrayal of Juan II of Castile’s privado and royal favourite, Álvaro de Luna, as a tyrant, the record of the social expansion of this portrayal throughout his time in office and the fact that the main reason for his execution refers precisely to this argument are historic circumstances that offer the chance to explore the shaping of public opinion, its chronological development, social scope and political usefulness, within the possibilities and limitations of the resources available.
