| Summary: | Diego de Saavedra Fajardo is a baroque author deeply influenced by a classical worldview and political thought, rooted in the realist Middle Ages, Aristotelian philosophy and Christian doctrine. This is especially relevant as far as his understanding of the relationship between the king, political power, the Church and God is concerned. In this first article, we will examine the type of connection existing in Saavedra's thought between the king and God, his relationship with the sacred, and, most importantly, the type of relationship Saavedra advocates between the temporal sphere and the Church as a spiritual sphere. Defining the autonomy and interdependence between powers will lay the groundwork for a second article on the spiritual function of the king. Diego de Saavedra Fajardo es un autor barroco profundamente influenciado por una cosmovisión y un pensamiento político clásicos, arraigados en el Medievo realista, en la filosofía aristotélica y en la doctrina cristiana. Esto es especialmente relevante en lo que concierne a su comprensión de la relación entre el rey, el poder político, la Iglesia y Dios. Examinamos en este primer artículo el tipo de vinculación existente en el pensamiento de Saavedra entre el rey y Dios, su relación con lo sagrado, y el tipo de relación que Saavedra propugna entre la esfera temporal y la Iglesia como esfera espiritual. Definiendo la autonomía e interdependencia entre poderes, se sentarán las bases para un segundo artículo sobre la función espiritual del rey. |
