Nos últimos anos da sua função Imperial ocorreram os seguintes factos: Em 1548 o documento proposto por Carlos V - o Interin de Augsburgo - não foi aceite pelos Protestantes nem pelo Papa A cidade de Magdeburgo centro da resistência protestante é banida do Império. Em 1552 Maurício da Saxónia responsável pela aplicação do decreto armou-se secretamente e surpreendeu o Imperador. Derrota de Carlos V em Innsbruck.

Supressão violenta de uma revolta anti calvinista em Genebra.

Os príncipes territoriais e as cidades livres que à data tinham aceite a confissão de Augsburgo passaram a ter liberdade de culto o direito de introduzirem a Reforma nos seus territórios jus reformandi e direitos iguais aos dos estados católicos. 1556. Carlos V assina a Paz com Henrique II de França. Abdicação de Carlos V. em Bruxelas com efeito em 1558. Carlos V abdica a favor do seu filho Filipe II a soberania dos Países Baixos Castela Leão Aragão e a Catalunha Navarra Nápoles Sardenha Sicília o Ducado de Milão e as Ãndias. A função imperial e as possessões dos Habsburgos foram entregues ao seu irmão Fernando I. Carlos viveu no mosteiro de Yuste tendo ali morrido em 1558. O humanista aragonês Juan Cristóbal Calvete de Estrella ca. 1510/20-1593 pertenceu à corte espanhola de Carlos V que o nomeou tutor do príncipe Filipe 1527-1598 em 1541. Acompanhou Filipe nestas viagens pelo que o seu livro constitui uma fonte primária essencial tanto para a vida e personalidade do futuro rei Filipe II que viria a trazer a Espanha a sua idade de ouro e o seu maior poder e riqueza como para os primórdios das suas relações com os Países Baixos que viriam a revoltar-se contra o rei e provocar a queda do poder de Espanha e a desenvolver a sua própria idade de ouro como Estado independente. Calvete de Estrella permaneceu em Antuérpia quando Filipe regressou a Espanha tendo aí mandado imprimir o seu livro. Trata-se de um excelente trabalho de produção de livros que antecipa o papel que Antuérpia viria a desempenhar como principal centro de impressão e edição da Europa.

First edition in the original Spanish of an eyewitness account of the travels of Prince Philip the future King Philip II of Spain and I of Portugal to the Low Countries through Italy and the German states with the aim of preparing him for the obligations he would have to face when he succeeded the titles of his father the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V who was also King Charles I of Spain. Published in the last years of the reign of Emperor Charles V. References to King João II and Portugal"s presence in Antwerp and Flanders can be found on folios 318; 235 and 302. This work fits in with the transfer of powers abdication and transfer of Emperor Charles V. In the last years of his Imperial function the following events occurred: In 1548 the document proposed by the Emperor - the Interin of Augsburg - and it was not accepted by Protestants nor by the Pope. The city of Magdeburg the centre of the Protestant resistance is banished from the Empire. In 1552 Maurice of Saxony responsible for implementing the decree armed secretly and surprised the Emperor. Defeat of Charles V in Innsbruck. The Emperor and the Protestant Princes sign the Treaty of Nassau. In the years 1552-1556 there was a war between Charles V and Henry II of France who had occupied Metz Toul and Verdun. In 1553 Maurice of Saxony defeated Albert Marquis of Brandenburg-Culmach in Sievershausen but was mortally wounded. In 1554 there was a signature of the Treaty of Crépy. In 1555 occurs the violent suppression of anti Calvinist revolt in Geneva. The city has become a refuge center for English and French Protestants and a radiation point of the Calvinist doctrine. In 1555 was signed the Peace of Augsburg which recognizes the Protestants freedom of worship and property. The territorial princes and free cities that had accepted the Augsburg Confession had now freedom of worship the right to introduce the Reformation in their territory jus reformandi and equal rights of Catholic states. In 1556 Charles V signed the Peace with Henry II of France. In the same year occurred the the abdication of Charles V in Brussels effective in 1558. Charles V abdicated in favour of his son Philip II the sovereignty of the Netherlands Castile Leon Aragon and Catalonia Navarre Naples Sardinia Sicily the Duchy of Milan and the Indies. The imperial role and the possessions of the Habsburgs were delivered to his brother Ferdinand I. Charles lived his last years in the monastery of Yuste in Spain and died there in 1558. The Aragon humanist scholar Juan Cristóbal Calvete de Estrella ca. 1510/20-1593 served in the Spanish court of Charles V who appointed him tutor to Prince Philip 1527-1598 in 1541. He accompanied Philip on these travels so that his book forms an essential primary source for both the life and personality of the future King Philip II who was to bring Spain its golden age and its greatest power and wealth and for the early beginnings of his relations with the Netherlands which was to revolt against the King bring about Spain"s fall from power and develop its own golden age as an independent state. Calvete de Estrella remained in Antwerp when Philip returned to Spain having his book printed there. It is an excellent piece of book production anticipating the role Antwerp was to play as Europe"s leading centre of printing and publishing. Referências/References: Adams C264; Belg.
