The coronations of Portugal’s first dynasty constitute a complex topic. Approaching the theme requires understanding that an omission of words in written documentation can both affirm and deny possibilities. Likewise, visual documentation, such as illuminations, sculptures and other figurative arts, is scarce, raising a significant number of questions and thus is not trustworthy as a historical source. For this reason, the study of Portuguese coronations is filled with questions and silences. Art does not testify to these ceremonies, but shows that Portuguese kings valued regalia pertaining to both religious and secular ceremonies affirming their power, and that those insignias were different from those used by French or English kings in the same time period. In this study, I will use art, particularly funerary sculpture, but also objects with iconographic value, to demonstrate how these reflect elements of thought and the emotional pulsar of the various European societies that produced them.

沉默之间：葡萄牙中世纪国王的加冕典礼（12至14世纪）

葡萄牙第一王朝的加冕典礼构成了一个复杂的话题。接近主题需要理解的是，书面文档中遗漏单词既可以肯定也可以否认可能性。同样，视觉文件，如照明，雕塑和其他具象艺术也很匮乏，引发了大量问题，因此作为历史资料是不值得信赖的。因此，对葡萄牙加冕礼的研究充满了疑问和沉默。阿尔特并未证明这些仪式，但表明葡萄牙国王对宗教仪式和世俗仪式均表示尊敬，以肯定其权力，并且这些徽章与法国或英国国王在同一时期使用的徽章不同。在这项研究中，我将使用艺术，尤其是葬礼雕塑，
