Ricardo Corazón de León (1157-1199) nació en Oxford y se cria con su madre Leonor de Aquitania en Francia. Fue rey de Inglaterra entre 1189-1199 pero solamente visitó Inglaterra en dos ocasiones durante su reinado: las correspondientes a sus dos coronaciones. Tomó parte en la Tercera Cruzada, con campañas en Sicilia y Chipre y en el camino es arrestado por Leopoldo V, duque de Austria. SE casó con Berenguela de Navarra y con ella no tuvo hijos legítimos. REconoció la herencia al trono, al morir, a su hermano Juan. Ricardo Corazón de León era un poeta!!! Escuchen. One of my favorite piece: Ja Nuns Hons Pris ne Dira - No man who is imprisoned (1192-1194) by Richard I Lionhearted * A song was written by Richard the First of England and Duke of Aquitaine, during the two years he spent languishing in prison after having been kidnapped and held for ransom in what is now Austria on his way home from fighting in the crusades. In it, he complains bitterly about how his friends seem to have all betrayed him by letting him remain in prison, rather than paying the ransom that would free him. A song is addressed to his half-sister Marie de Champagne and it is written in French and Occitan versions. The story of his rescue by the minstrel Blondel is fictitious, but has had its operatic and dramatic uses. Being a lifelong lover of music, and having learned music composition and poetry as part of his early education, he occupied his time by eloquently setting his distress to music. ** The song is performed by enseble Modo Antiquo under the direction of Bettina Hoffmann. ~Sirius~
