Neste trabalho estudamos a complexa rede diplomática entre a Coroa de Aragão e o reino de Portugal para o período entre 1441 e 1476, em que as relações externas entre os dois reinos foram marcadas por uma busca pela paz e pela manutenção da estabilidade de forças no interior da Península Ibérica. Para isto, fez-necessário analisar o contexto político, diplomático e económico das duas entidades, como eles se influenciaram mutuamente, de que maneiras estes cenários moldaram a linha política dos governantes portugueses e aragoneses e, ainda, perceber as vicissitudes das inter-relações destes dois reinos para com o vizinho castelhano em meio a um processo vivo e contínuo que visava o alcance do “equilíbrio peninsular”. A vertente mais importante desta análise, entretanto, compete ao estudo dos vínculos diplomáticos entre as duas coroas durante as décadas de conflitos internos e guerra civil nos territórios sob o jugo de D. João II de Aragão e Navarra e de que maneira estes eventos singulares, inicialmente restritos à esta zona oriental, afetaram o ocidente peninsular.
In this work we study the complex diplomatic network between the Crown of Aragon and the kingdom of Portugal for the period between 1441 and 1476, in which external relations between the two kingdoms were marked by a search for peace and maintenance between political forces in the interior of the Iberian Peninsula. To do this, it was necessary to analyze the political, diplomatic and economic context of the two entities, how they would influence each other, how these scenarios shaped the political line of the Portuguese and Aragonese rulers and, also, understand the vicissitudes of the interrelationships of these two kingdoms towards their Castilian neighbor in the midst of a living and continuous process that aimed to achieve “peninsular balance”. The most important aspect of this analysis, however, concerns the study of the diplomatic ties between the two crowns during the decades of internal conflicts and civil war in the territories under the yoke of D. João II of Aragon and Navarre and how these singular events, initially restricted to this eastern zone, affected the west of the peninsula.
