A Renaissance Realm
Straddling the Pyrenees, Navarre receives Renaissance humanism through two channels: the universities of Bordeaux and Paris from the north, and Salamanca and Alcalá from the south. The court of John III d'Albret and Catherine of Foix corresponds with Erasmus, hosts the philosophical lectures of Pedro de Atarrabia, and supports the first Basque-language publication, Bernart Etxepare's Linguae Vasconum Primitiae. This intellectual openness produces a small but cosmopolitan elite uniquely suited to mediating between French and Castilian humanism.
