Leges palatinae
The ''Leges palatinae'' ("Palatine Laws") were the laws governing the functioning of the royal court of the Kingdom of Majorca, promulgated by James III at Palma on 9 May 1337. The ''Leges'' were probably conceived to lend weight to James's position as an independent king. The ''Leges'' are preserved in an illuminated manuscript with colourful images by an Italian artist of the court officers about their duties.〔This artist has been dubbed the "Master of the Privileges". The style of his miniatures has been compared to Memmo di Fillippuccio of the Sienese school.〕 The ''Leges'' were translated from Latin and revised as the Catalan ''Ordenacions de cort'' by Peter IV of Aragon, after he conquered Majorca, in 1344.
The original manuscript was brought with James III to France when he fled Peter's invasion. He there gave it to King Philip VI. It was later given to Philip the Bold and ended up in the Bibliothèque Royale in Brussels. A facsimile edition by Joan Domenge i Mesquida, with an introduction in English describing the artistic value of the manuscript, was published by Indiana University Press in 1994.
The ''Leges'' are divided into seven sections and are "the most elaborate set of ordinances to survive from this period.〔Malcolm Vale (2004), ''The Princely Court: Medieval Courts and Culture in North-West Europe, 1270–1380'', (Oxford: Oxford University Press, ISBN 0-19-926993-9), 202–3.〕 Much of the text is spent explaining the roles of the four great officers of state: the majordomo (or ''maître d'hôtel''), great chamberlain (or ''camerlingue''), the chancellor, and the ''maestre racional'' (also ''maître des comptes'' or ''maître rational''). The lesser officers included the butler, marshal, and constable.〔David Abulafia (1994), ''A Mediterranean Emporium: The Catalan Kingdom of Majorca'' (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, ISBN 0-521-89405-0), 16,〕 The majordomo was in charge of maintaining court protocols and oversaw the king's table, much like the later ''grand maître d'hôtel'' in Valois Duchy of Burgundy.〔 The chancellor, the vice-chancellor, and the scribes of the chancery were accorded the right to issue documents pertinent to their offices without the prior permission of the king.〔Marta Vanlandingham (2002), ''Transforming the State: King, Court and Political Culture in the Realms of Aragon (1213–1387)," (BRILL, ISBN 90-04-12743-7), 29.〕 The subsection ''De mimis et joculatoribus'' ("On actors and entertainers") prescribes two trumpeters, a drummer, and two other performers permanently at court.〔Malcolm Vale (2006), "Ritual, Ceremony and the 'Civilising Process': The Role of the Court, c.1270–1400," ''The Court as a Stage: England and the Low Countries in the Later Middle Ages'', Steven J. Gunn and A. Janse, edd. (Oxford: Boydell Press, ISBN 1-84383-191-0), 18.〕 They played when the king arrived at dinner, when he left the table, and at the end o the meal; an early version of ''Tafelmusik''.
