Abstract

This text aims to reflect on the factors that contributed to the changes in the image of the Germans residing in Portuguese territory between the 15th and the 16th centuries. In order to do this, it is necessary to define the way in which the members of this community were represented in both periods; in other words, before and after the emergence of Lutheran ideas. In essence, based on the premise that there was in fact a change of image, the aim is to answer three main questions. What is the true extent of the causes of that change? What manifestations did the mutation in question actually take? And lastly, what was the impact of this change on the image of Germany that prevailed in the coeval Portuguese kingdom?
