Abstract

The autonomy of the legal system of the Portuguese kingdom, with respect to the neighboring Christian kingdoms, certainly was not matter of urgency in the medieval period. In the first centuries of his existence he inherited almost all sources of Law from the kingdom mother of Leon. To accompany the movement of Reception of the Ius commune the legislative monuments of Alfonso X were, from very early, usually present in the territory of the kingdom of Portugal. However, with the advent of the dynasty of Avis, starts the development of a proper legislative corpus which aims to abolish the Castilian collections and establish a certain legal autonomy.

Highlights

  • The autonomy of the legal system of the Portuguese kingdom, with respect to the neighboring Christian kingdoms, certainly was not matter of urgency in the medieval period

  • No entanto, que o contributo daquele, sobretudo a partir da segunda metade do século XIII, muito dificilmente se pode indissociar do elemento mais genérico do ius commune

  • A identificação, em concreto, de alguns títulos em que a fonte das Afonsinas foram as Partidas de Castela, deve ser tributada a Henrique da Gama Barros, História da Administração Pública em Portugal nos séculos XII a XV, tomo I, Lisboa 1885, p. 127

Summary

José DOMINGUES Professor Auxiliar da Faculdade de Direito

Doutor Pedro Ortego Gil (Catedrático de História do Direito da USC). La autonomía del ordenamiento jurídico del reino portugués, respecto de los reinos cristianos vecinos, no fue, sin duda, el mayor problema durante el período medieval. En los primeros siglos de su existencia heredó la práctica totalidad de las fuentes del Derecho del reino raíz de León. Con el objetivo de adecuarse al movimiento de Recepción del Ius commune, desde muy temprano los monumentos legislativos de Alfonso X estuvieron habitualmente presentes en el reino de Portugal. Con la llegada de la dinastía de Avís comienza la elaboración de un corpus legislativo propio, a través del cual se pretenden abrogar los cuerpos normativos castellanos y mantener cierta autonomía jurídica. PALABRAS CLAVE: Alfonso X, Partidas, Ordenações, Ordenamiento Jurídico Portugués
