O fasto na afirmação de poder : enlaces régios na época barroca (notas de investigação)

Resumo

In a context subsequent to the portuguese independance recovered in 1640 (“Restauração“) the choices of the royal weddings of the baroque time and their celebrations present themselves as rhetorics of political statement and independancy consolidation both in internal and external terms. The political use of pageantry in court rituals shows and festivities staged as means of exteriorization and propagation of a centralizing royal power.
