          Abstract

          This article on Bernardo de Brito seeks to analyze his historiographical work with the aim of refuting the traditional conclusion that he was opposed to the Habsburg kings ruling Portugal. I first describe the very close relationship Brito had with the court. Following this, I focus mainly on the four aspects of his work: the mythical population of the Iberian Peninsula, the ancient Spanish history, the splitting of the Portuguese County from the Leonese kingdom, and the Portuguese crisis of succession from 1383 to 1385, which ended with the enthronement of the Avis dynasty.

          Translated abstract

          Este artigo sobre Bernardo de Brito tem o objetivo de analisar a sua obra historiográfica para recusar a conclusão tradicional que se encontrava em oposição aos reis portugueses da casa de Habsburgo. Primeiro, descrevemos a relação próxima que Brito tinha com a corte. Depois, enfocamo-nos principalmente em quatro aspetos da sua obra: a população mítica da Península Ibérica, a história espanhola antiga, a separação do condado de Portugal do reino de Leão e a crise sucessória portuguesa de 1383 a 1385, que terminou com a entronização da dinastia de Avis.
