Gois and the Diplomatic Community

  • Chapter
Damião de Gois

Abstract

As the representative of a king whose voice was respected in the concert of European rulers, Damião de Gois moved among influential political figures; Charles V’s personal attachment to Flanders and Brabant made Antwerp a busy political crossroad leading to and from the imperial court, and the residence in Brussels of Margaret, regent of the Netherlands, was often visited by diplomats from many lands.
