| Sumario: | This research is related to with what we have called "death processes" in high Hispanic nobility households, from the end of the Middle Age to Early Modern Age and beyond. I focuse on the Mendoza family, one of the main noble households in the history of Spain, particularly on its main branch such as the Dukes of Infantado. When we talk about death we refer to everything related to the death of the nobleman: how death’s arrival is faced, the last wishes expressed in his last wills, the wakes, the processions and funeral ceremonies, the funerals and their burials. The places of eternal rest such as tombs, crypts, vaults and pantheons, the liturgy, music and funeral oratory, the different liturgies with the bodies, including occasional desecrations. As well as endless aspects related to the death of the prominent members of the Mendoza lineage. Of special interest is the monastery of San Francisco in Guadalajara, temple of excellence of the Mendoza family and the Dukes of Infantado; there, century after century, they perpetuated their fame and memory, choosing the monastery as the main burial place of the family members. |
