ORLOWSKI, Sabrina Soledad. Main historiographical trends on the kingdom of Toledo’s Visigoth military organization. Med_on [online]. 2016, n.19, pp.1-24. ISSN 1646-740X.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the main historiographical tendencies on the issue of the Visigothic military organization. We reviewed the most influential authors and their arguments within of this field in order to present its central topics of analysis. It is thus necessary to review the most important bibliography seeking to demonstrate that each trend of historical studies make very significant contributions that cannot be discarded in the current empirical research. Furthermore, we demonstrate that there are assumptions that have been defined in a particular historiographical moment, whose arguments have been adopted by successive generations of researchers without critical reflection.

Palabras clave : Visigoths; Kingdom of Toledo; Army; Historiography; Historiographical tendencies.
