spelling Three typological approaches to Catalonian archival evidence, 10-12 centuriesBenito Monclús, PereKosto, Adam J.Tayloe, Nathaniel L.[EN] This tripartite study draws upon the vast documentation surviving from Catalonia in the tenth through twelfth centuries. It focuses in turn on the following processes, each represented by numerous surviving charters of a specific type: testamentary proof and publication (Nathaniel L. Taylor), "convenientiae" and agreement enforcement (Adam J. Kosto), and agrarian "precaria" (Pere Benito). In each case, comparison of large numbers of similar documents has enabled the construction of complex typology, not just in the traditional diplomatic sense, but also considering the function of the ducuments and the social causes and implications of changes in form or function. The testamcntary probate documents illuminate a long-standing civil judiciary; changes in the form of the documcnts and the identity of testamentary authorities reflect the obsulescence and transformation of this judiciary in the eleventh and twelfth century. A case study of an eleventh-century comital conflict revealed in "conventientiae" shows notarial responses to changes in political behavior. Finally, agrarian precaria also follow modalities in tenurial structure. Drawing on a very rich archival resources, these findings support the relationship of social change and documentary change. Together, these studies demonstrate the nature of comparative work that can be done with studies based on large numbers of documents of superficially similar type.[FR] Cet article tripartite s'inspire de la survivance d'un grand nombre de documents catalans des Xe-XIIe siècles. Il rassemble les conclusions partielles de trois recherches de doctorat menées a partir d'un grande nombre d'actes d'un seul type: documents de publication et authentification testamentaires (Nathaniel L. Taylor), "convenientiae" et executions d 'accords (Adam J. Kosto), et contrats d'accensement appelés "precariae" (Pere Benito). Dans chaque cas, l'analyse d'un grand nombre de documents a permis de bátir une typologie complexe, non seulement dans le traditionnel sens diplomatique du terme, mais aussi en considérant la fonction des actes et les causes sociales ct les implications des changements dans leur forme et leur fonction. Les documents de publication testamentaires mettent en relief un systeme judiciaire qui existait depuis longternps: les changernents dans la forme des documents et l'identité des autorités retletent la transformation de ce systeme périmé pendant les Xle et Xlle siècles. L'étude d'un contlit entre deux comtes révélé par des "convenientiae" du milieu du XIe siècle montre les réponses des écrivains aux changernents de la conduite politique. L'analyse des contrats d'accensement, enfin, montre la diversité d'emplois dont cette figure juridique fait l'objet tout au long de trois siècles. Ces trois études ensemble démontrent la nature du travail que peut être fait a partir d'un grande nombre d'actes d'un seul type.Peer reviewedCSIC - Institución Milá y Fontanals (IMF)Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]201420141996info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://hdl.handle.net/10261/103938reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
