Arquitectura del poder y el poder de la arquitectura : las petrificaciones de las arquitecturas en Álava y Treviño entre los siglos IX-XIII

Abstract

[ES] Este trabajo tiene como fin analizar el proceso de "petrificación'' de las arquitecturas religiosas medievales en territorios carentes de centros urbanos o de centros de poder de una cierta dimensión en los que coexisten una diversidad de agentes y de sujetos en tensión. Para ello se toma en consideración un tramo del valle del Ebro (el territorio de Álava y el enclave de Treviño) situado en los márgenes de los poderes centrales que han dominado el noroeste hispano en época alta y plenomedieval. Adoptando una perspectiva de larga duración, se analizan las tecnologías empleadas, los grupos sociales implicados y los significados atribuidos a la construcción de iglesias privadas a lo largo de los siglos IX y XIII. En consecuencia, se diferencian tres períodos caracterizados por la "petrificación" del poder, la "petrificación" de la riqueza y la "petrificación" de las identidades colectivas en el contexto de la emergencia de nuevos poderes locales, subregionales y regionales, la afirmación territorial del dominio episcopal y la reconfiguración de las comunidades locales en términos parroquiales. Se concluye que no existe una correlación simple e inmediata entre riqueza, capacidad o voluntad de invertir en monumentalizar esta riqueza y la sofisticación de las tecnologías empleadas, ya que el fenómeno de la "petrificación'' del artefacto eclesiástico adquiere connotaciones muy diferentes a lo largo de los siglos analizados.

[EN] In this paper, we analyse the process of "petrification'' of medieval religious architecture in territorial contexts that do not have urban centres, or centres of power of a certain size, where a range of competing agents interacted with each other. In particular, we look at a sector of the Ebro river valley (Alava and Treviño), located on the margins of the state powers that dominated northern Iberia in the early medieval period. Adopting a long-term perspective, technological aspects, the social groups involved, and the meanings of the local churches built in the 9th and 13th centuries are considered. Three main periods are identified, characterised by the "petrification'' of power, the "petrification'' of wealth, and the "petrification'' of collective identities in the context of the emergence of new local and regional powers, with the rule of the bishops coming to the fore, and the redefinition of local communities in terms of parishes. lt is concluded that there is no simple and direct correlation between resources, technology, and social obligations to monumentalise churches, as the phenomenon of the "petrification'' of churches is a fairly complex one, in geographical and chronological terms.
