GLOEL, Matthias. Bernardo de Brito: A Misunderstood Portuguese Chronicler. e-JPH [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.2, pp.30-44. ISSN 1645-6432.
This article on Bernardo de Brito seeks to analyze his historiographical work with the aim of refuting the traditional conclusion that he was opposed to the Habsburg kings ruling Portugal. I first describe the very close relationship Brito had with the court. Following this, I focus mainly on the four aspects of his work: the mythical population of the Iberian Peninsula, the ancient Spanish history, the splitting of the Portuguese County from the Leonese kingdom, and the Portuguese crisis of succession from 1383 to 1385, which ended with the enthronement of the Avis dynasty.
