Title: | Unseen Heirs. Written Traces of Pregnant Widows and Posthumous Children in Early Modern Spain (c. 1490-1673) |
Author: | Dulmovits, Alice-Viktoria |
Description: | The pregnant widow and the legitimacy of the posthumous child she carries were a liability that soon found its legal regulation. The distrust placed in her can be traced in various documents between the 15th and 17th century in Spanish legal, notarial and religious texts. The analysis of these sources will help to gain an insight in the perceptions of pregnant widows and posthumous children regarding power, legitimacy and credibility. |
