- Title
Violencia y justicia en Zamora: un estudio sobre los comportamientos del personal del cabildo catedralicio en época pretridentina (1532-1565).

- Abstract
This contribution proposes, from an analysis of the judicial expedients of the judges of the Cathedral Chapter of Zamora, a study about the crimes committed by the beneficiaries and the chaplains of this institution before the Council of Trent. The most frequent faults that they committed were physical or verbal aggressions. The author proposes the hypothesis that these clerics shared the same conceptions of their contemporaries about honor and violence. The episodes described show the difficulties that the promotors of the process of professionalization of the clergy had to deal with before the Council of Trent. The author tries to establish the behaviours and conceptions of the beneficiaries and the factors that influenced their violent misconducts, particularly from the point of view of the uses of space and the time. The author concludes, from the analysis of some faults which are, apparently, misrepresented in the documents, that there were different ways to resolve the conflicts aroused by the crimes in order to avoid the infamy of the subjects and the institution.
