Los primeros vizcondes de Altamira en la villa de Viveiro: adquisición y pérdida de un señorío en el reino de Galicia

This article analyzes the situation in the town of Viveiro in the middle years of the fifteenth century, especially in those where the subject appears stately dependence of the first Viscount of Altamira. It explores issues of interest such as the occupation of the town by Marshal Pardo de Cela and grants granted by Henry IV Viscount of Altamira to offset the temporary loss of the manor. In the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella, the town regained its status Viveiro realenga and Mercedes new policy launched by the monarchs would grant wide margins of power to royal butler Enrique Enriquez, named from the first years of the reign of tenente villa.El presente artículo analiza la situación que atraviesa la villa de Viveiro en los años centrales del siglo XV, especialmente en aquellos en los que aparece sujeta a la dependencia señorial de los primeros vizcondes de Altamira. En él se estudian cuestiones tan interesantes como la ocupación de la villa por el mariscal Pardo de Cela y las mercedes concedidas por Enrique IV al vizconde de Altamira para compensar la pérdida temporal del señorío. En el reinado de los Reyes Católicos, la villa de Viveiro recuperaba su condición realenga y la nueva política de mercedes puesta en marcha por los monarcas otorgaría amplios márgenes de poder al mayordomo real don Enrique Enríquez, nombrado desde los primeros años del reinado tenente de la villa.

Los ingresos extraordinarios del Reino de Galicia en el siglo XV

Study of the extraordinary taxes that are levied in the kingdom of Galicia during the fifteenth century. First attention is given to the collection of actual orders during the reigns of John II and Henry IV, then move on to explore other ways of collecting taxes and extraordinary contribution of the Brotherhood and its replacement, from 1498, for extraordinary services approved by the Cortes of the kingdom.Estudio de los impuestos extraordinarios que se recaudan en el reino de Galicia durante todo el siglo XV. En primer lugar se presta atención a la recaudación de los pedidos reales durante los reinados de Juan II y Enrique IV, para pasar después a analizar otras formas de recaudación de tributos extraordinarios como la contribución de la Hermandad y su sustitución, a partir de 1498, por los servicios extraordinarios aprobados por las Cortes del reino

La Hacienda Real de Galicia en la época de Enrique IV (1454-1474)

A study of the evolution of royal income in the kingdom of Galicia during the reign of Henry IV (1454- 1474), not only in regard to regular taxes, sales taxes, tithes of the seas and reserves, but also extraordinary requests, with special attention to the value that such revenues attained in the domains of the kingdom. It also looks at other issues like the seizures of royal revenues of the kingdom made by some powerful nobles

Last will of Lope Gómez de Marzoa: a well-to-do and very well related man in the city of Santiago

El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en dar a conocer las últimas voluntades del regidor y notario compostelano Lope Gómez de Marzoa. Además de analizar sus disposiciones testamentarias, se estudiarán brevemente algunos de los aspectos menos conocidos de su biografía, tratando de clarifi car especialmente sus orígenes familiares y su papel como hombre de negocios y miembro de las élites urbanas en la Galicia del siglo XV. Asimismo, se hará referencia a algunos de los pleitos en los que se vieron inmersos tanto él como, sobre todo, sus herederos.

Alginate industrial waste streams as a promising source of value-added compounds valorization

[EN] The alginate industry processes more than hundred thousand tons per year of algae in Europe, discarding around 80% of the algae biomass as different solid/liquid residual streams. In this work, Saccharina latissima and Ascophyllum nodosum, their generated alginates and all residual fractions generated in the process were characterized in terms of lipid, ash, protein content, and the carbohydrate composition and antioxidant capacities analyzed. The first fraction after acid treatment (ca. 50% of the initial dry biomass) was rich in phlorotannins (15 mg GAE/g) and bioactive fucoidans (15-70%), with a high sulfation degree in A. nodosum. Two fractions generated from the solid residue, one soluble and another insoluble (Ra and Rb, respectively), constituted 9% and 5-8% of the initial biomass and showed great potential as a source of soluble protein (30% for S. latissima), and cellulose (70%) or fucoidan, respec-tively. Valorization strategies are suggested for these waste streams, evidencing their high potential as bioactive, tex-turizing or nutritional added-value ingredients for cosmetic, food, feed or pharmaceutical applications.This work acknowledges financial support from the Spanish Research agency (Ministry of Science and Innovation) through projects RTI-2018-094268-B-C22 and PID2020-117744RJ-I00.

On the extraction of cellulose nanowhiskers from food by-products and their comparative reinforcing effect on a polyhydroxybutyrate-co-valerate polymer

The present work reports on the characterization of cellulose nanowhiskers (CNW) extracted from three different food by-products, i.e., wheat straw (WSCNW), Brewers spent grains (BGCNW) and olive pomace (OPCNW), by using an optimized hydrolysis method similar to that developed to extract bacterial cellulose nanowhiskers (BCNW). WSCNW and BGCNW were seen to present optimal properties, with aspect ratio, crystallinity and thermal stability values comparable to those of BCNW. Additionally, the optimized hydrolysis treatment led to extraction yields higher than those previously reported for food by-products. The CNW were subsequently incorporated into a commercial polyhydroxybutyrate-co-valerate polymer (PHBV) by solution casting, and the produced nanocomposites were characterized. Although the addition of BGCNW and WSCNW was advantageous in terms of mechanical performance in comparison with OPCNW, no significant enhancement of the pure PHBV mechanical properties was reported because of the low nanofiller loadings used and the inherent difficulty of achieving a high degree of dispersion by the casting method. Interestingly, BGCNW and WSCNW presented reduced moisture sensitivity as compared with BCNW, leading to greater barrier performance and resulting in oxygen permeability reductions up to 26 % with WSCNW and 44 % with BGCNW.Noelle Peutat, on leave from the University of Grenoble in France, is acknowledged for her great dedication and support in the experimental work.
