description | This article deals with the repercussions produced by the implementation of the consecutive versions of the “Real Pragmática de Matrimonios” [Royal sanction for marriage] in the Vice-royalty of Río de la Plata and, more speciically, in the Province of Buenos Aires, since its irst American proclamation in 1778 until the dawn of emancipation. We will analyze both the role of parents, supported by the Crown to decide the matrimonial fate of their children, as well as the reaction of the latter, who saw their rights limited and had to disobey their parents in order to become responsible for their own lives. After analyzing documents from various kinds of Argentinian historical iles, relevant historiographical variations are obtained. Those variations are meaningful, as they help us to explore the fascinating reality typiied by prejudice, family interests and individual feelings in the late colonial period. |

Este artículo aborda las repercusiones producidas por la aplicación de las sucesivas versiones de la Real Pragmática de Matrimonios en el Virreinato del Río de la Plata y, más concretamente, en la provincia de Buenos Aires, desde su primera proclamación americana en 1778 hasta los albores de la emancipación. Se va a analizar tanto la actuación de los padres, apoyados por la Corona para decidir sobre el devenirmatrimonial de sus hijos, como la reacción de estos, quienes vieron limitadas sus libertades y tuvieron que contravenir a sus progenitores para poder ser responsables de sus propias vidas. Tras el análisis de documentación procedente de diversos archivos históricos argentinos se obtienen relevantes variables historiográficas para conocer mejor una realidad apasionante de prejuicios, intereses familiares y sentimientos individuales que transcurrió en el período tardocolonial. Cet article porte sur les conséquences de l’application des versions successives de la Pragmatique Royale de Mariages dans le Vice-royauté du Río de la Plata et, notamment, dans la province de Buenos-Aires, depuis sa première proclamation en 1778 et jusqu’au début de l’indépendance. Nous analyserons les agissements des pères de famille, soutenus par la Couronne pour décider le destin conjugal de leurs ils, ainsi que la réaction de ceux-ci, qui ont vu restreintes leurs libertés et qui ont dû s’opposer à leurs parents pour assumer pleinement leurs propres vies. L’examen de documents provenant de différentes archives historiques argentines, nous autorise à nous servir des variables historiographiques signiicatives permettant de mieux connaître une réalité passionnante constituée de préjugés, intérêts familiaux et sentiments individuels vécus dans la période coloniale tardive.
