Crisis of the Colleges of the University of Salamanca (XVIII-XX centuries). Its link with the Diputación (XIX century)

This review constitutes a historical account of the Salamanca Major Colleges. To do this, some existing documents in the Archive of the University of Salamanca and notarized copies of unpublished documents kept by the Provincial Council have been reviewed. Despite the fact that the history of these Halls of Residence is usually part of the numerous works related to the history of the University of Salamanca, the examination of these documents has allowed the author to make rigurous comments that provide originality in the knowledge of this subject.
