Abstract

ABSTRACT: The Disentailment caused many effects in many ways, among which the economic, human, and patrimonial and cultural aspects can be highlighted. In the field of archiving, it meant the appropriation, by the State, of an enormity of documentary funds that led to the creation of the Archivo Histórico Nacional. In some cases, all the archive was seized. In others, religious communities saved part of these, resulting in the fragmentation and dispersion of their funds. In this work, the effect of the Confiscation on the archive of the monastery of Santa María de Carbajal (León) is analyzed from a quantitative and a qualitative perspective.
