Sevilla. 1948. - EMBID (Florentino Perez) LOS DESCUBRIMENTOS en el Atlántico y la Rivalidad Castellano-Portuguesa Hasta el Tratado de Tordesillas . Sevilla: Escuela de Estudios Hispano-Americanos de Sevilla, 1948. 370, [6] pp.: il., 35 estamp.; 225 mm. A classic study on the Portuguese-Castilian rivalry over Atlantic discoveries, from the first contacts with the islands and the African coast to the signing of the Treaty of Tordesillas in 1494. Based on extensive archival documentation, the work reconstructs the succession of conflicts and diplomatic agreements between the crowns of Portugal and Castile throughout the 15th century, namely the Canary Islands question, the dispute over the Guinea coast, and the Treaty of Alcáçovas-Toledo (1479-1480), which preceded and prepared the final agreement of Tordesillas, decisive for the division of Iberian spheres of expansion in the Atlantic. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
