【 摘 要 】

This article discusses a ritual conflict which arose among the presidentes of the royal councils in mid-seventeenth-century Madrid. It dealt with the privilege of using a type of seat (the sitial) on public occasions, but had its most significant projection at the major processions of the town, mainly Corpus Christi. The analysis of this urban ceremony in the context of the final phase of the formation of a capital city helps to understand such ritual conflict as an expression of the reformulation of the notion of the Spanish Monarchy, as it was understood by Olivares and other public figures of the period: an unitary organism instead of the traditional image of composite monarchy based in the aggregation of kingdoms. This notion was exhibited in Corpus Christi procession whose own dynamics contained appropriated elements to present unity through variety.
