%X James I, like his contemporaries Emperor Frederick IIand Fernando III of Castile, was a major figure of theMediterranean and Iberian Middle Ages. The scope of hisachievements fully justifies the scientifically rigorous andforward-looking analysis of his work and inheritance beingundertaken in 2008 by the peoples who were once partof the Catalan-Aragonese crown. For indeed, thoughsome of his enterprises reveal insufficient foresight, a lackof vision of the future, much of what we are today in thedemographic, economic, social, political and culturalspheres ¡ª and much of what we are not ¡ª was initially forged during his reign.
