Resumen
ALBORNOZ VASQUEZ, MARÍA EUGENIA. Writing Down Desires, Passions and Powers: Recording Social Bonds to “Raise a City”. Notaries of San Felipe de Aconcagua, Chile, 1740-1837. Front. hist. [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.2, pp.12-43. ISSN 2027-4688.
Public writings build social links, as it occurred in San Felipe de Aconcagua, between the village's foundation (1740) and the classification of the notarial archives by a notary in 1836. More than recording important events for the history of the city, the notaries' activity, or of anyone who would carry out the public writings, show how legal culture and practices mattered and were transmitted day-to-day.
It highlights that clients and persons in charge of public writings and their conservation, take part in the judicial, political and cultural spheres of the jurisdiction, from their own careers, affects and experiences. Thus, bringing back the notary to its own humanity wanes the stereotypes and helps understanding the process of “levantar la villa”.
