SANTOS (Domingos Maurício Gomes dos). D. DUARTE e as Responsabilidades de Tânger (1433-1438). Lisboa. 1960. - SANTOS (Domingos Maurício Gomes dos) D. DUARTE e as Responsabilidades de Tânger (1433-1438) . Lisboa: Comissão Executiva do V Centenário da Morte do Infante D. Henrique, 1960. 116 pp.; 260 mm. This study examines the responsibility of King Duarte in the 1437 expedition to Tangier and its disastrous outcome, a question that historiography has debated alongside the attribution of blame to Prince Henry the Navigator, who commanded the fleet, and which is linked to the captivity and death of Prince Ferdinand, the Holy Prince. It analyzes the decision-making process of the campaign, the pressures exerted by the princes, and the opinions sought by King Duarte. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
