Project Title
O Poder de Governar. Instituições, ideologias e representações em Braga, no final da Idade Média (séc. XIV e XV)
Abstract
The aim of this work is to study the dynamics of political powers in Braga, in the 14th and 15th centuries (given the political-social transformations that the city underwent in this period, namely the changes in lordship between episcopal and royal, which occurred during these two centuries, in particular the two most significant - 1402 and 1472), placing them in a broader context of action (national and European). Thus, we will identify, characterize and understand the main political powers active in Braga, during the study period (county, archbishop, chapter, king, and other manorial powers), analyzing their political performance, the concrete exercise of power, as well as the respective ideologies and symbolic manifestations of that same power.
