Sumario:Reception and memory therefore offer perspectives of analysis that allow us to examine the representation and remembrance of certain historical characters and deeds in later contexts, such as the Early Middle Ages, when antiquity became a central element in the construction and deconstruction of identity or political and religious legitimacy. With this in mind, the present work analyses how the Roman emperors were remembered, focusing on the Iberian Peninsula between the eighth and tenth centuries as the specific political, religious and cultural characteristics of the period following the Islamic conquest of 711 offer a particularly interesting case study.
