Resumo
Don Íñigo López de Mendonza y Quiñones (1442-1515), Count of
Tendilla II and Marquis of Mondejar I, was one of the most influential figures of the
period of the Catholic Kings (1474-1504). Since the nineteenth century, his life and
achievements have been analyzed from various perspectives, such as the relations with
royalty, international relations, the art of war or the influence on the art of his time.
Within the various possibilities that the the theme offers us, this text proposes an
approach to the figure of Don Íñigo López de Mendonza y Quiñones, within the Spanish
aristocracy, through a study of his will and codicils. The most important aims of the
wills were to guarantee the salvation of the soul, to preseve indi vidual and family
memory, to reward those faithful servants and to organize transmission of heritage.
Thus, despite reflecting a concrete moment of an individual's life, wills allow the
confluence of three stages: the present, the past and the future. From this perspective, the study of the will and condicils, granted by the Count of Tendilla II, aims to analyze,
beyond the idea of death, power relations, conflicts and consensus within the lineage
and the family.
