landed nobility Explanation: It looks like a tautology at first sight, but I think "señorial" does add something, and that it's this. "Nobleza señorial" refers to the section of the nobility that had señorío in the old feudal sense of land, property and a dependent population. There was also a "nobleza no señorial" which was primarily urban. "La nobleza señorial tan sólo consiguió la propiedad plena de sus señoríos allí donde ya lo había hecho durante el siglo XVIII [...]. A esas dificultades se añadió el frecuente desplazamiento de antiguas oligarquías municipales, representantes de una nobleza no señorial —o incluso antiseñorial en ocasiones— que combinaban la propiedad con el uso del privilegio y que se reforzaban con la utilización, muy extendida en España, del mayorazgo". https://books.google.es/books?id=UJtPojieZSIC&pg=PT25 Here's an article, quite an important one in this area, on "La nobleza señorial en el reinado de Alfonso X": "Resulta obvio que, como si resultara una redundancia, existió un nexo perfecto entre los conceptos y las realidades de “nobleza” y “señorial”, porque la alta nobleza no habría sido tal sin esa capacidad de dominación sobre tierras y hombres." Dialnet-LaNoblezaSenorialEnElReinadoDeAlfonsoXConstitucion-5176657.pdf I think you could make a case for using "higher nobility", but I don't think that's quite it. "Landed" is closer to the idea of "señorial", I think. "Aristocratic ambition was also associated to a conduct related with the ways of life and values that formed the identifying hallmarks of the nobleza señorial, or landed nobility, as the dominant group in all kingdoms" https://www.brepolsonline.net/doi/pdf/10.5555/M.SEUH-EB.6.09... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 28 mins (2018-11-29 10:27:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Proper link for second ref is: https://dialnet.unirioja.es/descarga/articulo/5176657.pdf -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 46 mins (2018-11-29 10:45:57 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It is a bit. Off the top of my head maybe "the knightly class of/in Jerez" might be worth considering. But don't hold me to it! |
