Poem of Almería
The ''Poem of Almería'' (''Poema de Almería''), ''Prefatio de Almaria'' (''Prefacio de Almería''), or ''Carmen de expugnatione Almariae urbis'' (''Cantar de la conquista de Almería'') is a medieval Latin epic poem in 385½ leonine hexameters.〔Barton 2006, 458.〕 It was appended to the end of the ''Chronica Adefonsi imperatoris'', an account of the reign of Alfonso VII of León and Castile, and narrates the victorious military campaign of 1147 that culminated in the conquest of the port of Almería. The poem, as it survives, is unfinished, abruptly ending mid-line before recounting the actual siege of Almería itself. Of its surviving lines, 293 consist of "''dénombrement épique'', a stirring roll-call of the chief members and contingents of the army".〔Barton 2006, 458–59.〕
The ''Poem'' has aroused interest among scholars and critics for the light it may shed on the origins and development of vernacular epic (the ''cantares de gesta'') and on the nature of Iberian aristocratic and military customs.〔 It has been described as "a relict of incomparable interest for the cultural archaeology of the twelfth century"〔Salvador Martínez 1975, 398, quoted in Barton 2006, 459: "un resto de la arqueología cultural del siglo XII de incomparable interés".〕 and "a splendid reflection of its time and, in this regard, full of gold also as literature".〔Rico Manrique 1969, 72–73, quoted in Barton 2006, 459: "un espléndid reflejo de su tiempo y, de tal sentido, de hartos quilates también como literatura".〕 Stylistically, the ''Poem'' is indebted to the parallelism of the poetry of the Hebrew Bible and to the classical models of Virgil and Ovid.
