Abstract

In the following study, we offer a linguistic analysis and critical edition of some legal texts from the town of Gandia, dated 1598, namely the Composicions de farina (allegations concerning the sale of flour), that is, the formal complaints filed against and the punishments administered to the people who traded in flour illegally in the city of Gandia. The study is a linguistic analysis of both the diachronic and diatopic aspects of the question, in which we hope to show the most noteworthy characteristics of the Catalan of Gandia at the end of the 16th century. Moreover, editing the text has enabled us to examine a whole series of historical and social aspects of the object of study.
