- Abstract
In 5.6 % of the probate inventories collected for the city of Burgos as regards the eighteenth century a household item appears, «A table for lunch and dinner in bed» -also sometimes described as «A pine table to write in bed»-, associated especially to ecclesiastical household - appeared, in fact, in 12.7 % of the documents of the clergy-. In these pages several questions, are answered working hypotheses in fast. What socio-professional categories are those pieces? Did they evolve throughout the eighteenth century? Why especially among the clergy? This is a test parameter in the core of the micro-history of material culture that allows us to dive into the intimacies of Burgos households of the eighteenth century in order to clarify on unknown aspects of the everyday life and the most isolated parts of their existence.
