The Valencian Golden Age was a period of great cultural effervescence, as is well known. Authors such as Ausi\u00e0s March, Joanot Martorell, Jaume Roig, Joan Ro\u00eds de Corella, and Isabel de Villena represent the pinnacle of our medieval literature. The Crown of Aragon extended its influence to Naples through the conquests of Alfonso the Magnanimous, and even with the presence of the Borgia popes in Rome, Renaissance cultural currents were increasingly felt in our lands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This leading position in the European cultural vanguard continued well into the following century. In Valencia, an Italian-style<\/em> court was established, led by the Duke of Calabria and the widowed queen Germana de Foix, now viceroys of Valencia. This court became the hub of literary production by figures such as Llu\u00eds del Mil\u00e0, Joan Ferrandis d\u2019Her\u00e8dia, and Baltasar de Roman\u00ed, among others. Alongside this literary activity, there was music. In fact, it is through some of these written works that we can trace how music and dance were integral parts of the cultural milieu of that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During these sessions, we will explore this cultural and musical environment with specialists from various universities who will offer their insights into our most distinguished cultural century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
