摘要:A detailed account of the Abbots who attended the various meetings of the "Cortes" celebrated in Castile and Leon, between 1188 and the end of XVIth century, is given in this work. It was at that time that the heads of monasteries stopped attending these assembly s for ecclesiastical reasons, in order to do it exclusively for discharging the duties of their political and administrative jobs. The traditional sources, like "Cuadernos de Cortes" and royal chronicles have been combined with other sources of less frequent use like documents proceeding from the various monastic communities, or the information afforded by the XVII-XIX century.
