Article Title：The triumph of heaven:: The rewards of the crown & palm in the work of Gonzalo de!Berceo
Abstract：
The work of Gonzalo de Berceo, a native of the Rioja region of Spain who lived in the 12th and 13th centuries, illustrates the reutilization of the classic symbols of the crown and the palm as heavenly awards in the afterlife. The author analyzes Berceo's texts on the rituals of coronation and triumph as well as his sources, most of which were the canonical and the apocryphal Gospels. The author brings iconography to bear on this analysis: the iconography before and during Berceo's time as well as that which has been produced since, possibly because of the religious endurance of the oral and written tradition.
