Abstract
The article takes a look at the echo and treatment of the Germanies revolt in historiography and literature over the past five hundred years and, in particular, over the past two centuries. The assessment of the revolt has changed over time, in accordance with the concerns of each era, but also with the political and ideological perspective of the authors. In front of the eminently negative view of contemporary chronicles of the movement and of the most conservative and reactionary historians of the Restoration and Francoism, the liberal and romantic writers of the first half of the 19th century, the progressive intellectuals of the Second Republic and the Valencianist and antifrancoist authors –historians and writers– emphasized its anti-seigneurial and modern character. The text closes with a brief mention of the most recent academic contribution
