La casa de Ron. Nobleza y malfechores en la tierra de Castropol y Grandas (ss. XV-XVI). / The Ron Lineage. Nobility and Malefactors in the Lands of Castropol and Grandas (15th-16th Centuries).
Abstract
RESUMEN: El asesinato en 1564 de un sacerdote por un noble en la villa de Pesoz (Asturias), origen de una leyenda aún hoy conservada, llama la atención sobre la conducta recurrentemente violenta de un linaje preponderante en el occidente de Asturias –los Ron– que, si bien fue corriente hasta las primeras décadas del siglo XVI, resulta ya entonces anacrónica. Una exhaustiva labor de archivo permite trazar desde la baja Edad Media la trayectoria familiar y la configuración de su poder –socavado habitualmente al del clero–, contribuyendo a establecer un perfil de la pequeña nobleza propia del amplio territorio fronterizo asturgalaico a través de su linaje más representativo.
ABSTRACT: The murder in 1564 of a priest by a nobleman in the village of Pesoz in Asturias, the origin of a legend still remembered, is an example of the frequency of violent conduct in the Ron family, one of the most powerful families in western Asturias. This type of conduct was common up to the early 16th century, when it began to wane. Intensive research has made it possible to reconstruct the family’s rise to power and their relationship with the Church, and serves to draw a picture of the lesser nobility who lived on the Asturian-Galician border in the Middle Ages.
