Popis: | This contribution analyses the models of contractual manumission (kitāba) in Andalusi notarial manuals between the 4thH. / 10th CE. and the 6th H. / 12th CE. centuries. These documents establish the way in which owners could reach an agreement with their slaves to free them with the condition of subsequently paying for their release in instalments. This topic has been partially studied in the Mālikī legal doctrine, but there are still no contributions on their practise. In al-Andalus there is no archival documentation for this period, and notarial models provide an approximate image of the legal procedures in their practical register. They moreover provide interesting information on social relations and family and legal links that brought individuals together. |
