Abstract
This article focuses on the use of the deliberative interior monologue in Ramon Muntaner’s Crònica and is based mainly on an analysis of Chapter 230 of the work. In this chapter, Muntaner employs this narrative technique in order to convey the thoughts of Bernat de Rocafort, one of the key characters in his account of the Catalan expedition to Byzantium (1303–1311). Other examples of similar monologues in the Crònica, attributed to characters such as King Charles of Anjou (Chapter 72) or Roger de Flor (Chapter 199), are also taken into account. In all these cases, the article provides an examination of the narrative context, the main rhetorical and literary characteristics of the monologue, and its role in the psychological characterization of the character. The analysis reveals a common compositional pattern in the fragments studied, as well as the fact that the deliberative monologue is chiefly employed by Muntaner to describe the plans or schemes of characters who are described as wise or astute in the narrative.
