Abstract
- The present article recovers the historiographic and critical-textual discussion about the beginning of the Usatges de Barcelona. This literature review includes an examination about the dating hypotheses, interpretations on the code compilations, in addition to exploring the relationships of codes sources, with some notes on its typology, and the historical context of its formation and diffusion between the 12th-13th Centuries. It also aims to consider the role played by Usatges as the foundation (be it true or idealized) of a publicist tradition that started in medieval Catalonia. With this approach it is possible to link all these elements assuming that many of the interpretative matrices found in its historiography are going beyond to the mere description of the sources. Finally, the paper it also deals with the institutionalist narratives that emphasize the formation of public power and the modern State. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
