Avelar de Carvalho, Helena, "D. Duarte e a astrologia na corte de Avis", dins: Barreira, Catarina Fernandes - Seixas, Miguel Metelo de (ed.), D. Duarte e a sua época: arte, cultura, poder e espiritualidade, Lisboa, Universidade Lusiada de Lisboa (Estudos, 6), 2014, pp. 235-248.

Resum: King Duarte's attitude towards astrology has been ofen mentioned by Portuguese historians, but seldom understood in its proper context. A deeper study of his writings brings forward a new perspective, replacing his commonly referred rejection of astrology by a more complex and ambiguous attitude. He struggles to conciliate the practical uses of astrology (which were a natural part of life in the royal court) with Christian faith and Man's free will. Duarte's questioning is centered not in the validity of astrology itself, but in the topic of determinism.
