Estremadura Rural Elite in the Late Middle Ages. The Shepherd Juan Rubio († 1499)

Abstract

Juan Rubio, shepherd of the cows at the Monastery of Guadalupe, has at the time of his death a valuable livestock. His annual expenses in the rent of meadows are high. He also does small loans, in many cases to poor people and women. The case of Juan Rubio shows us the development of rural elite of humble origin in the crown of Castile during the 15th century.
