"Expedición de Catalanes y Aragoneses al Oriente" by Francisco de Moncada is a historical account written in the early 17th century. The work chronicles the military expedition led by Catalan and Aragonese soldiers to the Eastern territories, particularly under the auspices of the Byzantine Emperor Andronicus Palaeologus, as they sought to liberate him from the threat of the Ottoman Turks. Moncada's narrative aims to preserve the memory of these significant historical events and the valor displayed by these soldiers in their conquests. The beginning of this historical narrative introduces readers to the context of the Catalan and Aragonese expedition, detailing the political situation of the time, including the internal strife within the Aragonese monarchy and the external pressures from their enemies. As the narrative unfolds, the text describes the motivations behind the expedition, emphasizing the Catalans' bravery and military prowess against the Turks and Greeks. Moncada also presents key figures in the expedition, particularly Roger de Flor, who is appointed as the general of the army. The opening sets the stage for a tale of valor, strife, and conquest, engaging readers in an exploration of a lesser-known chapter in Mediterranean history.
