Abstract

La ceremonia que se analiza es un ejemplo de ensamblaje perfecto entre modernidad y tradición. La forma y el ser se unen para dar paso a un momento más en la historia de un país cuyos cimientos políticos se fraguaron, meditadamente, en los anales del siglo XII, mediante la firma de los denominados “Pareatges”, pactos que sentaron la base de la estructura política actual del Principado de Andorra y que fueron firmados por los dos señores del territorio de los valles andorranos. La imagen plástica de poder queda claramente reflejada en una ceremonia basada en los ritos, tradiciones y costumbres de un pueblo que ha sabido entender, defender su historia, sus tierras y sus gentes. Mediante el análisis comparativo de la reciente ceremonia solemne de toma de posesión del copríncipe episcopal de Andorra se demuestra la importancia que el protocolo y el ceremonial tienen como elemento legitimador de poder y en la transmisión de valores y tradiciones con siglos de historia.

Alternate abstract:

The ceremony under analysis is an example of the perfect blend of modernity and tradition. Form and being unite to give way to another moment in the history of a country whose political foundations were thoughtfully forged in the annals of the 12th century, through the signing of the so-called "Pareatges," pacts that laid the foundation for the current political structure of the Principality of Andorra and were signed by the two lords of the Andorran valleys. The visual image of power is clearly reflected in a ceremony based on the rites, traditions, and customs of a people who have understood and defended their history, their lands, and their traditions. An analysis of the solemn inauguration ceremony of the Episcopal Co-Prince of Andorra demonstrates the importance of protocol and ceremony as a legitimizing element of power and in transmitting values and traditions with centuries of history.
