  João das Regras - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
João das Regras, in English, literally John of the Rules, was a Portuguese jurist of the second half of the 14th century.

 the consolidation of the monarchy in portugal - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
An alliance between Portugal and England was concluded; and although Ferdinand made peace with Castile in 1374, he renewed his claim in 1380, after the death of Henry of Castile, and sent Joao Fernandes Andeiro, count of Ourem, to secure English aid.
On April 16 1385 the cortes assembled at Coimbra declared the crown of Portugal elective, and at the instance of Joao das Regras, the chancellor, D. John was chosen king.
The most urgent matter which confronted the king or the group of statesmen, led by Joao das Regras and the "Holy Constable" who inspired his policy was the menace of Castilian aggression.

 The Punishment of Pride
Until the forces of Joao of Avis triumphed on that field, it seemed likely that Portugal would be absorbed into the kingdom of Castile, much as the kingdom of Aragon would be absorbed in a Castilian dominated Spain under the descendants of Ferdinand and Isabella.
His legal adviser, Joao das Regras, a recent graduate of the University of Bologna, argued successfully before the assembled adherents of the anti-Castilian cause, that the rival claims of Dona Beatriz and of the children of Dom Pedro by the famous Ines de Castro should be set aside.
The victory at Aljubarrota was memorialized by Joao by foundation of the abbey of Batalha.

 jazz e arredores: Setembro 2004
A seu favor, teve o timbre límpido e fortemente vocalizado que sacou da sua trompete, a par das interessantes improvisações que construiu, privilegiando os tons orientalistas, a sugerir uma forte inspiração na música japonesa.
A música fluiu com naturalidade, tratasse-se da recriação de standards ou de composições originais, colectivas ou individuais, umas e outras foram reformuladas de maneira tal, que se tornava virtualmente impossível acompanhar a continuidade de uma linha melódica, de tão fragmentadas e intercaladas se apresentavam.
Da sua iniciativa têm partido um muito razoável número de grupos, a maioria deles filiada numa estética de um free jazz bravíssimo, um híbrido que resulta da síntese pós-ayleriana e pós?coltraneana, com elementos diversos das escolas improvisação europeia.
