Abstract


This paper introduces and analyzes the ascent of Juan Pacheco, granson of aristocratic portuguese emigres, from his modest position as squire to the Prince of Asturias (and future King Henry IV), to that of Lord of Utiel and Moguer, and eventually (after the battle of Olmedo) Marquis of Villena, one of the most powerful lordly estates in the Kingdom of Castile
