El Cantar de mio Cid, literalmente “El Cantar de mi Cid”, o “El Cantar de mi señor” (o El Poema de mio Cid), también conocido en inglés como The Poem of the Cid, es el poema épico castellano (español: epopeya) más antiguo que se conserva. [1] Basado en una historia real, narra las hazañas del héroe castellano Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, conocido como el Cid, y se desarrolla durante el siglo XI, época de conflictos en la Península Ibérica entre el Reino de Castilla y varios principados taifas de Al-Andalus. Se considera una epopeya nacional de España.
El medievalista español Ramón Menéndez Pidal incluyó el Cantar de mio Cid en la tradición popular que denominó mester de juglaría. El mester de juglaría se refiere a la tradición medieval según la cual los poemas populares se transmitían de generación en generación, modificándose en el proceso. Estos poemas estaban destinados a ser representados en público por juglares, que interpretaban la composición tradicional de forma diferente según el contexto de la representación, a veces añadiendo sus propios giros a los poemas épicos que contaban, o abreviándolos según la situación.
Characters of the mio cid
he fact that it is based on a real event, we have to know that the elements that are told there are sustained under this premise, not exempt the text, of course, of the imaginative manipulations that turn it into a literary work. The difference between this type of heroic deed and the one told in the Iliad is, precisely, that there were people who could have known the Cid, so the minstrels could tell the story and if it was not true they could be disproved.
Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar is banished from Castile because of disagreements with the King, he goes to the land of the Moors where he fights and conquers great riches, even taking over Valencia; always remaining faithful to his monarch, the princes of Carrion who have married the Cid’s daughters are able to whip them and abandon them in revenge for the mockery received by the Cid’s men for their lack of courage. The Cid asks for and obtains justice from the king and his men defy the traitors.
Song of exile
Those of us who studied what was called pure letters know what it was like to decipher some fragments of 14th century Castilian when we read the Cantar del Mio Cid. A masterpiece of medieval epic literature in these parts, it is the oldest epic poem that has been preserved in its entirety.
Its authorship and the date in which it was written are still a matter of debate among scholars. They do seem to agree that it is based on a series of oral versions that must have circulated shortly after the death of the Cid.
Its original title is unknown, although it would probably be called “gesta” or “cantar”, terms with which the author describes the work in verses 1085 (“Aquí compieça la gesta de mio Çid el de Bivar”, beginning of the second cantar) and 2276 (“las coplas deste cantar aquís van acabando”, almost at the end of the second cantar), respectively.
The theme of the Cantar de mio Cid is the complex process of recovery of the hero’s lost honor, whose restoration will eventually lead to a greater honor than that of the original situation. Implicitly, the poem contains a harsh criticism of the high nobility of Leon by blood or courtesan and a praise for the low nobility who have achieved their status by their own merits, not inherited, and war to achieve honor and honor.
The poem begins with the banishment of the Cid, the first cause of dishonor, due to the legal figure of the royal wrath[4] (“el rey me ha ira”, vv. 90 and 114), unjust because it has been provoked by intriguing liars (“por malos mestureros de tierra sodes echado”, v. 267) and the consequent confiscation of his estates in Vivar, the seizure of his material goods and the deprivation of the patria potestas of his family.
