CASTRO, Tiago de Martinho Simões Machado de. Obligation and will in the Corpus Christi procession: civilian and military crafts relations in the light of a Kings response to the city of Lisbon. Cadernos do Arquivo Municipal [online]. 2014, vol.ser2, n.2, pp.39-53. ISSN 2183-3176.

We observed the coexistence of civilian and military functions on the same individuals, based upon a kings response to the city of Lisbon. The shown case deals with how the king avoids a collision between the set of privileges conceded by him to his gunners and their obligation of participating in the Corpus Christi procession, under the craftsmen regulations. This study pretends to constitute a first approach to the subject of how the rules that bind a Portuguese crown artillerist interact with his civilian activity as a craftsman
