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 specifically, in the Province of Buenos Aires, since its first 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 files, relevant historiographical variations are obtained. Those variations are meaningful, as they help us to explore the fascinating reality typified by prejudice, family interests and individual feelings in the late colonial period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the Hispanic world, the implementation of the "Real pragmática de matrimonios" [Royal sanction for marriage], in 1776, originated a great amount of family controversy, due to the matrimonial choice made by the children of the family. On the one hand, parents defended the lineage and reputation of their families, while the children chose to express their free will to marry. Several lawsuits were iled before the courts in order to solve these conlicts. This is the context in which the present research project is framed, where eight dissent trials were analyzed, that ended with the rejection of the marriage proposal by the female part, without having to justify the reasons concerning to their decision. Nevertheless, in reading these cases, external inluences over the speech of the young ladies are evident, convincing them to avoid the fulillment of the weddings. We can also identify different strategies used by the parents such as the "deposit of wives" in the homes of honorable families or other places suggested by the jury, discrediting the reputation of the iancé or reinforcing patriarchal authority, in order to dissuade them from engaging in these marital unions.
