Resumo
This research has the goal of investigate the relationship between the Portuguese monarchy
and the Papacy during the thirteenth century, especially, the reign of Sancho II (1223-1248).
King, Kingdom and Papacy intersect each other in our analysis about the deposition process
that unseated the Portuguese king and, at the same time, those interactions are crucial
regarding the dynamic research that we establish in this work. Sancho II had a troubled
coexistence with the clergy and the papal curia, especially in the time of Gregory IX (1227-
1241) and Innocent IV (1243-1254). We argue that this problem came from the great power
concentrated in the hands of Iberian clergy, beyond the break of the king with a certain faction
of those prelates, in particular, Master Vicente and the archbishop of Braga, Silvestre
Godinho. In the Council of Lyon (1245), the Portuguese monarch was deposed by Pope
Innocent IV (called rex inutilis, in other words, inadequate to lead the government of the
kingdom), due to a linkage involving not only the high Portuguese ecclesiastical dignitaries,
but also the king’s brother, Afonso, the Count of Bologna. We have spent some effort to
understand some details of papal action, especially the time when the king’s situation
worsened. For that investigative task, we emphasize the documents issued by the Chancellery
of Sancho II and the papal documentation designed to Portugal. We intend with our analysis
to evince that far from being unable to rule, in different circumstances, the Portuguese
monarch expressed the royal will, both in negotiations and in retaliations against opponents.
