Blas de Lezo - Black T-Shirt

Endless attacks and fierce defenses planned on his figure. Considered one of the best generals of his time and one of the great heroes that our mother earth has produced, the Black Legend describes him and his elite troops, the Tercios, as an ambitious, brutal, sadistic, cruel and savage guy. , without empathy, who applied terror and extermination, a true tyrant. Renowned experts and historians deny all these extremes, other important and serious ones say otherwise.

In any case, to say that he is a relevant character, for better or for worse, in the history of Spain, he was a trusted man of Emperor Charles V and his son Felipe II. Wherever the imperial cause had to be defended, the Duke of Alba met there. We see him in Vienna against the Ottoman expansion, in Tunisia overthrowing Barbarossa returning the control and power of the Crown over the Mediterranean, in Mühlberg defeating the German Protestants, his campaigns in Flanders, putting down the revolts in the Netherlands, defeating Luis de Nassau and Guillermo de Orange, or conquering, for the Empire, Portugal. He lived through the splendor of the Golden Age and shared arms and camaraderie with his good friend, the poet Garcilaso de la Vega. Still, he turned out to be the champion of the idea of ​​Empire — Generating / Civilizing Empire or Predatory / Colonizing Empires? - and his actions favored the undisputed apogee in the international concert during the SXVI.

Those already mythical kings who created the so-called Spanish Empire, that generator empire, in contrast to the predatory Empires, of which the philosopher Gustavo Bueno speaks. The symbolic representation of that idea of ​​Empire represented by the Catholic Monarchs (Isabel and Fernado) and the Emperor Carlos V and his son Felipe II.

At dawn the first shadow falls on Jaén lands, towards the heart of the Eastern Sierra Morena. Giant, imposing, on his broad chest his black eagle, the arrano beltza, which he proudly carries as he breaks the chains and crosses the barrier of African slaves who protect the caliph. They have taken away his great treasure, his precious emerald. Miramamolín el Verde flees, the Navarrese forces of Sancho "the strong" have dealt the final blow on the army of the Almohad Empire.
