BOUZA, Fernando. António Manuel Hespanha and the Resignification of Hapsburg Portugal (1580-1640). e-JPH [online]. 2020, vol.18, n.1, pp.65-70.  Epub 30-Jun-2020. ISSN 1645-6432.  https://doi.org/10.26300/6p92-0h43.

In this paper, I focus on the profound changes that have taken place over the last thirty years regarding the way in which historians approach Hapsburg Portugal (1580-1640), and highlight the important contribution made by António Manuel Hespanha in this matter. The way in which the period has been subjected to a process of historical resignification is described against a background of nationalist preconceptions. I also offer a perspective for the future study of Iberian history in the light of the current debate on the chronologies and timescales of historical analysis.

Palavras-chave : Hapsburg Portugal; António Manuel Hespanha; Timescales of analysis; Iberian history; Nationalist preconceptions.
