Abstract
El presente artículo, de carácter marcadamente interdisciplinar, analiza la relación que
se establece entre la imagen de la Orden del Temple y su fidelidad a los votos jurados
en la narrativa del siglo XIX. Se pretende demostrar que el amor y el deseo son una
constante y que las múltiples relaciones de los personajes hacia los sus sentimientos y
sus votos, pugna del héroe decimonónico, acaban delineando tipos concretos (que
bien pueden entenderse como actualizaciones de sus funciones en la literatura de
ficción medieval) y determinando la culpabilidad o no de la Orden: mientras que la
novela europea traducida en España no se conformó con esgrimir buena parte de las
acusaciones históricas o posteriores, sino que añadió otras y multiplicó
específicamente las relacionadas con el voto de castidad, la novela histórica española
se mostrará benevolente hacia la Orden, tan condenada como unos protagonistas que
optan por acatar sus votos.
In this paper, markedly interdisciplinary, I analyze the relationship established between the image of the Knights Templar and its fidelity to the vows sworn in the nineteenth century narrative. It is intended to demonstrate that love and desire are a constant and that the multiple relationships of the characters towards their feelings and their votes, the nineteenth-century hero's struggle, end up outlining specific types (which may well be understood as updates of their functions in literature of medieval fiction) and determining the guilt or not of the Order: while the European novel translated in Spain did not settle for wielding a good part of the historical or later accusations, but added others and specifically multiplied those related to the vow of chastity, the Spanish historical novel will be benevolent towards the Order, as condemned as some protagonists who choose to accept their vows.
