摘要:This article is devoted to the study of the participation of four catalano-aragonese Military Orders in the Crusade organized by king Alphonse the Benign of Aragon against the Nasri kingdom of Grenade, between 1329 and 1334. On the basis of a not very large number of records, the author analyzes attentively the role of the Hospitallers during the enterprise; however —because of the lack of records—, the role played by the Orders of Montesa, Calatrava and Santiago has been studied with less detail. Where as the Hospitallers opposed resistance to the performance of military service —which forced the sovereign to adopt harsh measures against them—, the Montesa knights fulfilled their duties better, and the rest of the Orders were absent from the Frontier.
