Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Una apasionante aventura en la corte aragonesa del siglo XIII. Los naipes le hablaban de forma confusa, con augurios inquietantes. Le anunciaban nubarrones tormentosos sin concretar su naturaleza, lo que la llevaba a temer por la salud de los suyos y el buen gobierno de Belcamino. Siglo XIII. Epoca de la persecucion de los cataros, de las Cruzadas y del comienzo de la Inquisicion. Ante la masacre que esta sufriendo su pueblo, Braira de Fanjau, una joven catara occitana, viaja a Zaragoza para escapar del exterminio, ocultando el secreto de su fe. Alli conocera a la reina Constanza de Aragon, casada en segundas nupcias con Federico II de Hohenstaufen, rey de Sicilia y emperador del Sacro Imperio Romano-Germanico, que la tomara bajo su proteccion tras descubrir el gran talento que atesora: la interpretacion de las cartas de Tarot. En muy poco tiempo, Braira ocupara un lugar privilegiado junto a los monarcas, lo que la convertira en protagonista de aventuras tan fascinantes como peligrosas, donde el honor, las pasiones, intrigas y traiciones moveran los hilos del destino. Isabel San Sebastian se adentra en la Edad Media de la mano de La catara, dando vida con emocion y gran rigor historico a unos personajes y un tiempo determinantes en la Historia de Espana y de Europa.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONAn exciting adventure in the Aragonese court of the thirteenth century. The cards spoke to her in a confused way, with disturbing omens. They announced storm clouds without specifying their nature, which led her to fear for the health of her people and the good government of Belcamino. 13th century. Time of the persecution of the Cathari people, the Crusades, and the beginning of the Inquisition. In the face of the massacre of her people, Braira de Fanjau, a young Occitan Cathari woman, travels to Zaragoza to escape extermination, hiding the secret of her faith. There she will meet Queen Constance of Aragon, who remarried Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, King of Sicily, and Holy Roman Emperor, and who will take her under his protection after discovering her great talent: Tarot card reading. In a very short time, Braira will occupy a privileged place alongside the monarchs, which will make her the protagonist of adventures as fascinating as they are dangerous, where honor, passions, intrigues, and betrayals will move the strings of destiny. With The Cathari Woman, Isabel San Sebastian explores the Middle Ages, giving life, emotion, and great historical rigor to characters and a decisive time in the History of Spain and Europe.
