Esta dissertação de mestrado incide sobre as cartas de perdão régio concedidas por D. Duarte e D. Afonso V, a respeito do serviço militar prestado na campanha portuguesa a Tânger em 1437. Procurando expandir o entendimento da relação entre a clemência régia, o crime e a conjuntura político-militar desse período, em primeiro lugar analisa o papel do indulto régio a combatentes sentenciados enquanto modalidade da ação do rei, como garante de justiça e de paz social. Em segundo lugar avalia as possibilidades oferecidas pela carta de perdão ao amnistiado, através do aliciamento ou recompensa por serviços militares, e procura averiguar o papel dos recetores dessa mercê no plano militar em Portugal no século XV. Para tal, o nosso foco serão os homiziados que serviram na suprarreferida expedição de Tânger.
Assim, tencionamos caracterizar com maior exatidão o perfil social dos indivíduos por detrás dos crimes cometidos (e recetores desta mercê), trabalhando sobre tópicos que a historiografia portuguesa ainda não trabalhou aprofundadamente, como a mobilização, pela Coroa, de efetivos criminosos (ou apenas acusados de infrações) e a experiência do combatente durante a própria guerra e após o seu retorno à sociedade. Ao cruzar fontes e dados jurídicos, sociais e militares, espera-se fornecer um estudo focado no crime, na política militar e nas próprias cartas de perdão – entendendo estas últimas não como um fim em si, mas enquanto interligação entre o poder régio, o serviço militar de homiziados e a experiência destes nas campanhas marroquinas do século XV, contribuindo também para uma nova perspetiva sobre o Desastre de Tânger de 1437.
This master's dissertation project focuses on the royal pardon letters granted by King Duarte and King Afonso V in connection with military service during the Portuguese campaign to Tangier in 1437. While seeking to achieve a deeper understanding of the relationship between royal clemency, crime, and the political-military context of this period, it will first analyse the role of royal pardon for convicted combatants as a form of the king's action, as a guarantor of justice and social peace. Secondly, it will assess the opportunities provided by the pardon letter to the amnestied individuals, through incentives or rewards for military service, and investigate the role of the recipients of this royal mercy in the military sphere of 15thcentury Portugal. To this end, our focus will be on the outlaws who served in the aforementioned Tangier expedition. Thus, we intend to characterise with greater accuracy the social profile of the individuals behind the crimes committed (and the recipients of this mercy), delving into topics that Portuguese historiography has yet to explore in depth, such as the Crown's mobilisation of criminal elements (or merely accused individuals) and the combatants' experience during the war itself and their reintegration into society afterward. By cross-referencing legal, social, and military sources and data, this study seeks to provide a focused analysis of crime, military policy, and pardon letters – understanding them not as an end in themselves but as a nexus between royal power, the military service of outlaws and their experiences in the Moroccan campaigns of the 15th century. The study aims to offer a fresh perspective on the 1437 Tangier Disaster.
