dc.description.abstract	[eng] The first evidence of a certain interest in folk literature in the Balearic Islands dates to the eighteenth century in Menorca. The island was under British rule from 1713 to 1756 and from 1763 to 1802, and under French rule from 1756 to 1763. The British Crown kept Catalan as the primary language and promoted a system of government that was more liberal than the one becoming established in Bourbon Spain. In this sociopolitical context, Menorca experienced a period of economic prosperity and developed a cultural environment that fully embraced the principles of the Enlightenment and Neoclassicism.	ca
