Reconstructing lost archives: the case of the Costa family

≈ 2 mins de leitura

Margarida Leme

Since the family archives of the various branches of the so-called “Costas com Dom” family no longer exist in full, the aim of this work is to reconstruct them, using previously identified archival fonds beginning at the end of the fifteenth century, through the sixteenth century, until the beginning of the seventeenth century. The aim of this investigation was, therefore, of an historical and archival scope, in a mutual relationship of knowledge. The intention was to study and explain how the “family”, as an organization, produced written documents, organized them in archives, preserved and passed them on to the following generations — understanding the archive as a central and structuring nucleus of the power of the ancien régime’s nobility.
