Times and Life histories. Family, age and life-course by means of the lithography in Early Modern Age

2023-04-10T07:11:22+00:00

The current research addresses the family, age, and life-course’s representation by means of the lithography in Early Modern Age from a social and cultural perspective. We focus on new ways of understanding them, and new applied methodologies that help us understand the structures’ operation and the relationship among individuals in Early Modern Age. A required interdisciplinary nature that tackles cross-cutting elements during Old Regime such as family and intergenerational relations and, alongside it, allows us to bring in new methods of understanding and making social history.

La fondazione religiosa dei padri chierici regolari minori a Madrid (1594-1599)

2023-08-29T15:40:03+00:00

The Clerics Regular Minor arrived in Madrid in late April 1594 led by the founder Francesco Caracciolo. Due to the continued opposition to the new religious institution by the Consejo de Castilla, Felipe II granted this permission only a few days after his death. The concession of the Cédula Real, ratified by Felipe III on September 5, 1598, responded to the petition presented by the Italian Iacopo de Gratiis, [Caballero de Gracia] who, since their arrival, he had hosted the Caracciolini fathers in the houses he owned. The continued disagreements that erupted over the course of more than four years, due to the despotic and bossy attitude maintained by the latter, finally convinced the few religious, directed by Father Giuseppe Imparato, to leave the uncomfortable accommodation, and to found, on January 20, 1599, their first House of the Espíritu Santo, located in the Carrera de San Jerónimo, in the vicinity of the Hospital de los Italianos.

Military recruitment in the Campo de Montiel and the war in the Alpujarras. The case of September 1570

2023-04-04T16:27:19+00:00

The rebellion of the Moors, also known as the War of the Alpujarras or simply the Granada War, which took place between 1568 and 1571, has generated an extraordinary historiographical production that addresses, especially from local or regional visions, but also recent synthesis of the whole, very various topics related to the military, social, economic or religious history of very diverse spaces close or not to the place of the conflict. However, the Campo de Montiel and its military involvement in the war are great thematic axes clearly abandoned in historiography. This study focuses on the men who served in the company of Antonio de Coronado, recruited in Villanueva de losInfantes in September 1570. It emphasizes bringing a new vision to the Campo de Montiel war effort, and their commitment to the Crown. and focuses on the analysisof its participants.

Silent dwellers of the Novohispanic household: A few remarks on private libraries

2024-01-18T16:59:38+00:00

The culture of books in Colonial Mexico has been studied for decades throughout numerous historical documents transcribed and published in 1914 and 1939 by the Nation General Archive of Mexico. However, those studies did not approach private libraries of that period in its complexity, despite the various preserved testimonies, bibliographic and documentary, that prove the richness, diversity and dynamism which characterized those collections that existed in this territory. These libraries have recentlygenerated more interest to the historical research and, for that reason, this text analyzes the inquisitorial strategies which generated some documents that allow to know thecontent of these private collections between the 16th and 18th century, explaining the nature and characteristics of such testimonies that are different from those notarial.

Luis de Requesens and the entrance to the Alpujarras: the participation in the last great campaign of the war (September 1570)

2023-10-06T07:17:23+00:00

The War of the Alpujarras was one of the main events of the central years of the reign of Philip II. To put down the Moorish rebellion, the Monarchy investedall in military resources. One of the main leaders was Luis de Requesens, who from 1569 directed high-level actions. This study analyses his role in the last campaign of the war, the entry into the mountains in 1570, where a royal army deployed irregular tactics with the sole objective of defeat the last resistance. His opinions on the dispersal and repopulation of the Alpujarras will be exposed, seeing how these changed over the months and could influence the final decision-making.

An emotional crime. Witchcraft and unrestrained emotions in the English Atlantic (England and New England, XVIth-XVIIth centuries)

2023-04-06T08:51:53+00:00

This article intends to analyze the connection between harmful magic and demonism, the key aspects of the Early Modern witchcraft beliefs, and emotions in Old and New England between 1563 and 1692. From the reading of pamphlets about witches penned for popular consumption, witch-trial records, as well as from demonological treatises written by members of the cultural elite, the next pages aim to demonstrate on the one side, that judicial denunciations for witchcraft originated from sociallyobjectionable emotional responses by the suspects; on the other, that the devil approached and seduced his human minions during moments of emotional frailty. In this way, the hypothesis of this research is that in the English Atlantic the witche´s crimes, whether maleficium or diabolism, had an evident emotional dimension. The origin of their transgressions was the witches´ lack of emotional restrain.

Increasing the nobiliary wealth. The II Marquis of Castellnovo before the courts and the altar

2023-10-30T11:43:03+00:00

The objective of this work is to examine the inheritance accession process conducted by Don Antonio de Cardona y Borja, II Marquis of Castellnovo. As a result of a well-considered marriage strategy and benefiting from the vicissitudes of the biological destiny of his relatives, he managed, in a few decades, to triple the real estate assets thathis House had at the time of his birth. Central to this was his marriage to Teresa del Milà, but also the consolidation of his influence both in the Court environment and inthe kingdom of Valencia. Thus, his authority and social networks were essential to achieve a certain preeminence before the justice courts in which the different inheritancedisputes that both he and his wife confronted throughout their lives were settled. An analysis that, in addition to showing us the success of the Cardona and Milà strategy,reveals the intricacies of the intra-family confrontations through the documentation emanating from the judicial processes.

The Basque Iron Trade from Seville. Regulation and Structure of the Trading Companies (1566-1583)

2024-05-29T11:28:21+00:00

This article aims to show one more facet of the Basque iron trade in the 16th century through an exhaustive examination of four trading companies based in Sevillebetween 1566 and 1583. With well-established contact networks, the Basque trading community in Seville became the main supplier of iron in the south of the Iberian Peninsula. To this end, the creation of trading companies was a more than usual resource, and we will now look at the characteristics of their settlement in the city of Seville.

Times and Life histories. Family, age and life-course of youth through engraving in the Early Modern period

2023-06-13T07:24:17+00:00

The present research approaches, from a social and cultural perspective, the representation of family, age, and life course of youth through modernist engraving. We acknowledge the importance and power of images; however, we aim to approach them from a social and meta-pictorial perspective using an applied methodology that helpsus understand the functioning of structures, the relation- ships between individuals, and the dimension of the life cycle in the Early Modern period. While we understand youth as a process intimately linked to the biological, familial, and community life cycle, through an interdisciplinary lens, we seek to address these elements inthe family and society of the Ancien Régime, with new ways of understanding and doing social history.

LAS ORDENANZAS DE LA ACEQUIA DEL CADÍ DE GRANADA DE 1531. EL ARRENDAMIENTO DE AGUA EN EL PAGO DE DARALGAZI O CASA DE LAS GALLINAS Y LA REGULACIÓN ADMINISTRATIVA DE SU USO AGRÍCOLA

2024-05-19T07:05:14+00:00

El uso del agua es uno de los hitos del nuevo orden cristiano que define la organización local referida al derecho y costumbres de riego una vez tomada la ciudad de Granada en 1492. Tales códigos de conducta, no escritos pero fielmente observados, toman carta de naturaleza en diferentes ordenanzas sobre el agua que regulaban sus diferentes usos; tal es el caso de las Ordenanzas de la acequia del Cadí de 1531. En este artículo presentamos un manuscrito inédito, un arrendamiento de agua de riego de 1533 en el conocido como pago de Daralgazi, que amplía el estado de la cuestión de la investigación en el tema de las aguas de riego de esta heredad en el siglo XVI, y el conocimiento hasta el momento sobre dicha explotación. Igualmente, amplía las noticias y datos sobre la acequia del Cadí que le servía de suministro.

A water lease in the pago de daralgazi and the administrative regulation of its agricultural use

2024-07-16T14:54:08+00:00

The use of water is one of the milestones of the new Christian order that define the local organisation concerning the rights and customs of irrigation after the city ofGranada was taken in 1492. Such codes of conduct, unwritten but faithfully observed, became established through various water ordinances that regulated its different uses. In this article we present an unpublished manuscript, a water lease for irrigation from 1533 in the area known as Pago de Daralgazi, which enhances the current state ofresearch on the topic of irrigation waters of this estate in the 16th century and the knowledge thus far on its exploitation.

2024-07-07T11:46:21+00:00

This work offers information about the convent of Calced Augustinians, which was confiscated in Granada in 1836. Through the disentailment files we recreate whatthe church of the convent was like, data which is mostly unknown due to the disappearance of the building with the passing of time. We also try to provide referencesas to where some of the community's belongings ended up in the distribution that took place at the time. We also provide some interesting information about theCristo de San Agustín and its brotherhood.

Carters and muleteers in the transportation of goods in the Crown of Castile during the Late Medieval and Early Modern periods (14th-17th centuries)

2024-01-18T17:23:21+00:00

The author studies the activity of the transport of merchandise in the Crown of Castile between the thirteenth and the eighteenth centuries that used the land routes. Inthe first part he pays atten- tion to the transport with carts, establishing a distinction between those carried by oxen, and those carried by mules. He identifies the main regions of the kingdom where part of the population was devoted to this activity, and the main merchandises that were transported by oxen or mules. In the second part he identifies the main regions where many muleteers were devoted to the transport of merchandise, paying special attention to those that at the same time invested in mercantile enterprises. Inthe third part he offers an introductory study about the social profile of the carriers, establishing a distinction between entrepreneurs that employed a salaried workforceand dependent workers.

The transportation system in the center of the Iberian Peninsula (18th century)

2024-10-01T14:25:33+00:00

This paper focuses on the socioeconomic analysis of the transportation system in the center of the Iberian Peninsula during the mid-18th century. Data extractedfrom the documentary levels of the Catastro de Ensenada, corresponding to the 319 localities that make up the current province of Ávila, were used, complemented by information from road repositories and other sources. As a result, a preliminary map of the land transportation system has been developed, which includes the characterizationof inns, as well as an analysis of the typology, location, number, and utilities of the transportation routes. Additionally, data on goods, pack animals, and types of households are provided, as well as on the type, ownership, and operation of inns, which will allow for the defini- tion of a first economic map of the transportation system in the central peninsula, providing a solid foundation for understanding the structure and operability of transportation networks.

Land routes in the Southern Cone of Colonial America

2024-04-02T08:14:31+00:00

Overland routes in the Southern Cone of America are examined in the context of the inter- modal system that was also articulated with maritime and fluvial routes. The Andes Mountain range was the frontier of land transportation means, with the predominance of road routes to the east and mule tracks to the west. In this context, specific historical subjects emerged, “troperos” in the River Plate-Pampean space, and “arrieros” in Chile and the mountain areas.

Overcoming the adventures of sea and land: shipment of the lectern that illustrious Rojo donated to the Metropolitan Cathedral of Mexico

2024-07-24T07:52:10+00:00

In this paper we examine the relevance of the of the maritime and land routes that made it possible to donate a lectern from the Philippines.

Through the transpacific route of the Manila galleon (1565-1815), numerous people and goods transited both shores of the Pacific from the Philippines to the New Spain or to the Iberian Peninsula. Muleteers transited from Acapulco to Mexico City, along the so-called route to Asia, to dispense the last wills of Manuel Antonio Rojo del Río y Vieyra, archbishop of Manila and governor of the Philippines (1708-1764), for the lectern to reach its destination.
