Descripción
Summary:This book presents the first scientific edition of this masterpiece of Portuguese medieval chronicling. Rui de Pina, chief chronicler of the kingdom and keeper of the Torre do Tombo, creates a dramatic and moving narrative of the events of the reign of King Afonso V (1438-1481), from the turbulent years of the regency of his uncle, the infant Pedro, to the Moroccan wars and the conflict with the Catholic Monarchs over the succession to Castile. An independent-minded writer, Rui de Pina does not spare kings or princes, whose behaviour he criticises whenever he deems it necessary.
