 Chapter 16: A History of Aragon and Catalonia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Pope Calixtus was unwilling to recognize Ferdinand, Alfonso's son, as the King of Naples, while the local barons were divided into parties, some preferring Carlos de Viana, others Juan II himself, others the son of René of Anjou, while Ferdinand was not without supporters.
The Duke had come forward as a claimant after the death of Martin, and the fact that the Aragonese King had deprived him of the possession of Naples was sufficient to account for his hostility.
King Ferdinand was thus obliged to remain constantly in Castile, and a local quarrel among the barons of Aragon prevented King Juan from defending Perpignan, which fell into the hands of the French in March 1475.

After the celebrations for the betrothal of Ferdinand and Miranda, a masque performed by spirits and nymphs, Caliban and his plotters are punished by spirits.
