mirror of princes' genre  

Definición

  • Mirrors of princes are advice literature, outlining basic principles of rulerly conduct and of the structure and purpose of secular power, often in relation to either a transcendental source of power or abstract legal norms. Such texts were as popular in the Latin West as in the Islamic world, or Byzantium. [Source: Encyclopedia of Political Theory; Mirror of Princes' Genre]
