House Of Enríquez
The House of Enríquez is a Spanish noble lineage of royal origin. History The House of Enríquez originated in the Crown of Castile, in the person of Frederick of Castile (Casa de Borgoña), natural son of King Alfonso XI of Castile and Eleanor de Guzmán, and twin brother of Henry II of Castile, who gave name to the lineage ("Enríquez" being a patronymic form of ''Henry'' or ''Enrique''). The House of Enríquez is a cadet branch of the House of Ivrea. From a political point of view, the family became the most powerful of Castile, displaying the dignity of Admirals of Castile for nearly 200 years and earning the Duchy of Medina de Rioseco. They were part of the elite aristocratic power in Castile during the Middle Ages and, along with 19 other Spanish lineages, were recognized by Charles V in 1520 as one of the first Grandees of Spain. Titles held by members of the house also include “Señor de Haro” and “Masters of the Order of Santiago.” Jurisdictionally, they ...

Blason Fam Es Enríquez
Blason is a form of poetry. The term originally comes from the heraldic term "blazon" in French heraldry, which means either the blazon, codified description of a coat of arms or the coat of arms itself. The Dutch term is Blazoen, and in either Dutch or French, the term is often used to refer to the coat of arms of a chamber of rhetoric. History The term forms the root of the modern words "emblazon", which means to celebrate or adorn with heraldic markings, and "blazoner", one who emblazons. The terms "blason", "blasonner", "blasonneur" were used in 16th-century French literature by poets who, following Clément Marot in 1536, practised a genre of poems that praised a woman by singling out different parts of her body and finding appropriate metaphors to compare them with. It is still being used with that meaning in literature and especially in poetry. One famous example of such a celebratory poem, irony, ironically rejecting each proposed stock metaphor, is William Shakespeare's S ...
