Abstract

Urraca I suffered first-person physical and psychological violence as a woman, as queen had to justify his position as heir and owner of the kingdom, and in third person has remained until recently as historical myth; woman incapable of being sovereign . The Historia Compostellana by its editors, create a historical myth that has become a caricature. But the same chronic hiding capabilities Queen, shows us just what the Queen had to deal. First person shows his sufferings and third-person recounts his devices. Chronic intentionality and prejudice are present in what is related to the queen
