Natalidade e mortalidade na Freguesia da Bemposta em finais do Antigo Regime (1752-1800)

Abstract

The master's dissertation in Modern History to witch we proposed, is performed within Historical Demography. This dissertation demographic behaviour of birth rate and mortality from the population of Bemposta’s parish (city of Abrantes) over 49 years (1752- 1800) are analysed. Through parochial records of baptism and death it is our goal to understand if the information found fits the patterns of fecundity and mortality established for the 18th century. Based on synodical constitutions, we will also try to comprehend for the case of Guarda’s Diocese in the Early Modern Period, how the first the sacrament of baptism was understood, what kind of importance it had for the community and how it was prescribed.In a time in which the salvation of the soul and the final destiny were both central in one’s life, the faithful should follow the behavioural and spiritual precepts of the Catholic Church daily. Following this logic, the sacramental practices, the testimonies, the destiny of the body and the spiritual help reveal how the population of Bemposta behaved towards death. This dissertation its goal is to develop a demographic study crossing information supplied by parochial registers of baptism and death, not only to understand if the birth rate and mortality from this parish were inserted in the pattern behaviours of the time, but also to stop the shortage of historic-demographic studies in Santarém’s district and in the Central area in general, shortage that contrasts with the relative abundance of Historical Demographic work that exists in the North of the country

A dissertação de Mestrado em História Moderna a que nos propusemos, realiza-se no âmbito da Demografia Histórica. Nesta dissertação de mestrado analisam-se os comportamentos demográficos de natalidade e mortalidade da população da freguesia da Bemposta (concelho de Abrantes) ao longo de 49 anos (1752-1800). Através dos registos paroquiais de batismos e óbitos iremos perceber se esta paróquia se insere nos padrões de fecundidade e mortalidade estabelecidos para o século XVIII. A partir das constituições sinodais, também iremos compreender como é que, no período moderno, o primeiro sacramento do batismo era entendido, qual a sua importância e o que se prescrevia na diocese da Guarda.Numa época em que a salvação da alma e o destino final eram centrais na vida de cada um, os fiéis deviam seguir diariamente os preceitos comportamentais e espirituais da Igreja. Neste sentido, as práticas sacramentais, os testamentos, o destino do corpo e os socorros espirituais revelam como a população da Bemposta se comportava perante a morte. Esta dissertação tem como objetivo desenvolver um estudo demográfico cruzando informações fornecidas pelos registos paroquiais de batismos e óbitos, tentando não só perceber se a natalidade e a mortalidade dessa paróquia se inseriam nos comportamentos padronizados da época, como também colmatar a escassez de estudos histórico-demográficos do distrito de Santarém e da zona Centro em geral, carência que contrasta com a relativa profusão de trabalhos de Demografia Histórica existentes para o norte do país.
