Abstract

When and where was a charter written? Whether the scribe prepared it before, during, or after a transaction, on the spot or elsewhere, conditions its standing as historical evidence. They are basic questions for understanding how the written record relates to the communities whose actions it reveals. This article seeks answers in the corpus from the kingdoms of Asturias-León and Navarra down to 1031. Attention to the writing and content of the documents points to a variety of scenarios, the most common being: for the scribe to attend the transaction with a prepared template to be integrated into the execution of the transaction, or for the scribe to take notes at the transaction on the essential details to form the basis for later drafting its record. Both scenarios presume the real presence of the scribe as well as the reading aloud of the final text to participants, which together functioned as controls on the written word to ensure its integration into society.

宪章的社会背景:中世纪早期伊比利亚(711-1031)文献的时间和地点
宪章是何时何地写成的?无论抄写员是在交易前、交易中还是交易后,在现场还是在其他地方准备,都决定了它作为历史证据的地位。它们是理解书面记录如何与它所揭示的社区的行为联系起来的基本问题。本文从Asturias-León和Navarra王国到1031年的语料库中寻找答案。注意文件的写作和内容指向各种各样的场景,最常见的是:对于抄写员来说,带着准备好的模板参加交易,将其整合到交易的执行中,或者对于抄写员来说,对交易的基本细节进行笔记,以形成后来起草其记录的基础。这两种场景都假设抄写员的真实存在,以及最终文本对参与者的大声朗读,这两种情况共同控制了书面文字,以确保其融入社会。
