Abstract
The continuation of the businesses of the Portuguese Crown to the curia of Avignon brought the constitution of two types of representation. One, of formal character, consisted of ambassadors chosen ad casu with different social backgrounds and other constituted by clerks living continuously at Avignon. The ones like the others intervened in the concretization of the gracious or tax requests in the name of the king or of benefit for them and their clients.
