This papers aims to study the figure of the infante D. Pedro Carlos de Bourbon e Bragança, with sources such as the sermons and the eulogies published immediately after his death, as well as the news published in the gazettes of Madrid, Lisbon and Rio de Janeiro and some correspondence. We also intent to understand the repercussions of the Napoleonic expansion on Spanish and Portuguese politics and the consequent departure of the Court for Brazil through a prince who had a short live and perished in the Portuguese empire.
