Abstract
En el presente trabajo nos proponemos analizar las tensiones existentes, entre mediados del siglo XV
y principios del XVI, dentro del gremio murciano de los pelaires en torno a la designación anual
de sus autoridades principales, los veedores. En este período, la elite dirigente busca hacerse con el
monopolio del cargo en cuestión, mientras que un sector del artesanado resiste esta afrenta. A raíz de
este conflicto, las autoridades urbanas modifican en diversas ocasiones los criterios de elección de
veedores con el fin de acallar las tensiones internas de la corporación, aunque sin mayor éxito. Será
nuestro objetivo analizar la naturaleza social de la disputa, para lo cual trataremos de identificar los
intereses de los actores en pugna
This paper aims to analyze the existing tensions within the wool carders’ guild of Murcia regarding the annual election of their main authorities – the so-called veedores – from the second half of the fifteenth century to the early sixteenth century. In this period, the guild´s elite sought to monopolize the designation of these authorities, with the resistance of several guild members. As a consequence of this conflict, the local council interceded several times by changing the election system with the aim of calming the tensions, although with no success. Our objective is to identify the interests of the main actors involved in the conflict, in order to analyze the social nature of this dispute.
