    • Abstract:
      In September of 1702, after being named Ambassador to France by Philip V, Juan Tomás Enríquez de Cabrera, XI admiral of Castile, fled to Portugal where he became the main supporter of the Austrian candidate to the Spanish throne. His decision led to the decline of the Enriquez de Cabrera family, which lost the preeminent position that had obtained thanks to the favour of the monarchs. In this paper we analyses the arguments that the XI admiral presented to justify his desertion and we bring to light new documentation on the confiscation of his properties in Madrid.

    • Abstract:
      En septiembre de 1702 Juan Tomás Enríquez de Cabrera, XI almirante de Castilla, desobedeció el mandato real de dirigirse a la embajada en París y marchó a Lisboa, donde se convirtió en el principal valedor del archiduque Carlos. Como resultado, fue condenado por un delito de lesa majestad y sus bienes fueron confiscados, lo que marcó el declive de su ilustre linaje, cuya fortuna había estado ligada al favor de los monarcas. En el presente artículo analizamos los motivos que arguyó el XI almirante para justificar su insólita decisión y presentamos nueva documentación sobre las casas que le fueron confiscadas en Madrid.
