Don Martín de Ambel: Evocación y Realidad. Algunos Problemas sobre la escritura de la historia de Cehegín
Journal Title: Alquipir - Year 2022, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
The nobleman Martín de Ambel lived in Cehegín in the seventeenth century, some works have already been written about the life of this man, most of which have fallen into oblivion. The story is peculiar, and it is not common for it to occur in a town like Cehegín. The character in question was born in the time of Felipe II but developed his life throughout the seventeenth century, when he killed Don Alonso de Góngora in a duel, he accepted the sacred place and lived the rest of his life locked up in the church of La Concepción. Now that it is intended to carry out a history of the town of Cehegín, the problem of realistic reconstruction or novelization of the events arises.
