RAMINELLI, Ronald. Monarchs y subjects ''without qualities''. Hist. Soc. [online]. 2011, n.21, pp.17-32. ISSN 0121-8417.
In Brazil, few settlers had the necessary honor to receive the benefits granted by the king. In general, when they were not mestizos and mulattos, local elites originated in ancient Jewish strains. Although vassals without honor, kings granted them mercy and some privileges. This grace reveals the weakness of the forces that linked parts of the empire and the need to reaffirm the alliance with the subjects of the most remote areas. As a hypothesis, consider that the grace may indicate that, far from Lisbon, the rigor of the ''probanzas'' was attenuated to reward the courage of warriors without social status or pure blood.
