These three approaches may be qualified as peripheral ones in the historiography of the Comunero movement. The first one collects the burlesque variations that inspired Carlos V and his contemporaries (Villalobos, Guevara and Francesillo de Zúñiga); it is the riot of some castillan cities. The second one is William’s Roberston’s, a scottish historian researcher from the xviii century that observes the movement through the light of his own experience of britannic parliamentarianism, and whose conclusions will be very important for the liberal interpretation defended later by Martínez de la Rosa. The third and last one, Karl Marx’s, replaces him in a larger space of reflexion on a topic that he can bear witness to: xix century Spain’s politic troubles.
