Abstract

In doing so, besides the connections which he succeeded in establishing with other important families, and in which marriage alliances played a key role, decisive were the services rendered to Carlos II, and above all his long experience as viceroy in Italy. Membership of the council of Italy and his appointment as mayordomo mayor of queen Mariana of Neuburg enabled him to consolidate both his own power and his house. Once in the council, he opted clearly for the French succession and, after the king's death, he renounced his post in the queen's service to enter that of the new French monarch. Caballero de la orden de Santiago, de la que fue dignidad Trece y comendador de Monreal, heredó asimismo de sus antepasados los cargos de caudillo mayor del reino y obispado de Jaén y alcaide de sus reales alcázares y fortalezas, así como el de alférez mayor perpetuo de la ciudad de Ávila3.
