[EN] Since Charles V’s abdication in 1556, the House of Austria was divided into two branches. Philip II of Spain intended to create around his relatives in the Holy Empire a group of courtiers and counsellors linked to the Spanish monarchy through ties of loyalty and service. That “Spanish Faction” needed a prestigious patron to act as a broker. Empress Mary of Austria, sister of Philip II, wife of Maximilian II and mother of Rudolf II played the role of mediator. When she decided to return to Spain in 1581, her absence meant a cataclysm for the Spanish network in the Empire. The new ambassador, Guillén de San Clemente, introduced a significant change: since then, ambassadors enjoyed greater authority and autonomy to win and reward courtiers for serving to the Spanish King, but the limitations linked to ambassadors’ lower rank led to significant consequences in the management of affairs
[ES] Desde la abdicación de Carlos V en 1556, la Casa de Austria se dividió en dos ramas. Felipe II se esforzó en conformar en torno a sus parientes en el Imperio un grupo de cortesanos y consejeros que mantuviera vínculos de lealtad y servicio con la Monarquía hispana. Esta “facción española” precisaba de una cabeza de alcurnia que pudiera ejercer eficazmente como mediadora. Tal persona fue la emperatriz María de Austria, hermana de Felipe II, esposa de Maximiliano II y madre de Rodolfo II. Cuando en 1581 ella abandonó el Imperio para retirarse a España, su ausencia significó un cataclismo para la red española. El nuevo embajador, Guillén de San Clemente, marcó un sustancial cambio a embajadores con mucha iniciativa y margen de discrecionalidad para ganar voluntades. A la vez, las limitaciones asociadas a su rango llevaron a un nuevo estilo de negociación.
