Abstract

This article aims to demonstrate the legal importance of some documents that constitute an important part of heritage archives, including marriage contracts which in medieval and modern times have served to justify certain rights and ownership in families. These are the outstanding documents regarding the history of certain families, as well as the history of many legal principles and formulas in Catalan family and inheritance law and, through these formulas, the evolution of its family system and society. The article presents how the most important legal aspects of Catalan marriage contracts evolved from the early Middle Ages to the enactment of the Decret de la Nova Planta, highlighting key moments in the history of the creation of Catalan civil law.
