Abstract
The article explores the relationship between precious possessions and power strategies of their owners in the context of the reinforcement of the Crown's power between c. 1480 and the end of the Avis-Beja dynasty in 1580. Six figures are analysed from a gender perspective: kings João II, Manuel I, and João III; Beatriz, duchess of Avis, and queens Leonor and Catarina de Áustria. Their choice of precious possessions depended not only on personal circumstances but also varied according to their access to political authority. Whereas women accumulated objects in direct relation with their spirituality (with the exception of queen Catarina), men favoured the possession of religious objects as a strategy in order to reinforce political power and authority.<br>O presente artigo explora a relação entre os bens materiais e as estratégias de poder dos seus possuidores no contexto do reforço dos poderes da Coroa entre cerca de 1480 e o fim da dinastia de Avis-Beja em 1580. Analisam-se, segundo uma perspectiva de género, seis figuras da casa real: os reis D. João II, D. Manuel I e D. João III; a duquesa de Beja, D. Beatriz, a rainha D. Leonor, sua filha, e ainda D. Catarina de Áustria. As suas escolhas em matéria de bens de luxo dependiam não apenas de circunstâncias pessoais, mas variavam também consoante o seu acesso à autoridade política. Enquanto as mulheres acumularam objectos em relação directa com a sua espiritualidade (com a excepção provável de D. Catarina), os homens favoreciam a posse de objectos religiosos como uma estratégia de reforço de autoridade e poder político.
