Abstract(s)
O objectivo principal deste presente estudo é dar a conhecer a evolução dos registos de nascimento, casamento e óbito desde que há notícia dos assentos que provam esses atos.
Desde sempre, se pensou que o responsável pelo início da elaboração dos registos teria sido o Concílio de Trento. A verdade, é que para o nosso país não foi assim. O principal responsável pelo lançamento dessa semente foi o rei D. Afonso IV que, em 1352, manda redigir uma carta circular, tornando obrigatório que, na igreja paroquial de cada freguesia do reino, existisse um livro para registar casamentos. Da eficácia e aplicação desta carta nada se sabe, mas conhecem-se livros datados de 1510, onde aparecem registados nascimentos, casamentos e óbitos. Vários anos após a publicação desta carta, surgem-nos as constituições sinodais dos vários bispados de Portugal, que contêm normas para a elaboração dos referidos assentos. Estas normas, com algumas outras emanadas do Concílio de Trento, permitiram lavrar os assentos de nascimento, casamento e óbito até ao Código do Registo Civil de 1911.
Por fim, na sequência do projeto inicial, e com os dados disponíveis, tentaram-se encontrar algumas causas para a elevada mortalidade do século XIX, na freguesia de São Gião, concelho de Oliveira do Hospital, distrito de Coimbra.
The main objective of this study is to present the evolution of records of birth, marriage and death since there is news of registers that prove these acts. Historically, it was thought that the responsible for the early development of the records would have been the Council of Trent. The truth is that for our country it was not so. The main responsible for the launch of this seed was King Afonso IV, in 1352, who sent a circular letter, making mandatory that in each parish church of the kingdom there was a book to register marriages. About the effectiveness and application of this letter nothing is known, but books dating from 1510 are known, where appeared registered births, marriages and deaths. Several years after the publication of this letter, the synod constitutions of several bishoprics of Portugal arose, containing rules for the preparation of these registers. These rules, with some other issued by the Council of Trent, allowed written registers of birth, marriage and death until the Civil Registry Code of 1911. Finally, following the initial project, and with the available data, we tried to find some causes for the high mortality of the nineteenth century, in the parish of St. Gião, municipality of Oliveira do Hospital, Coimbra district.
