Abstract

Command and obedience do not exist without emotional forms of shaping control. This is especially notable in the Kingdom of Aragon, since the heterogeneity of its territories was not only unified through the titles of the royal family, but the ceremonials, the aesthetic simplicity and balance of the buildings formed the charismatic ostentation of a command that demonstrated its power through the prizes seized from the enemy, the stately architectural forms and the civil rites of recognition.
