Talk:Catalan constitutions

Prescribed
"The first compilation was prescribed by Ferran I&hellip;" Prescribed is an awkward word here, it roughly means recommended as the solution to something. What are you intending to convey? -- Jmabel | Talk 06:38, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Titles
How would one translate these titles? Is this correct?


 * Constitucions i altres drets de Catalunya ("Constitutions and other rights of Catalonia" or is it "Constitutions (and other) rights of Catalonia"?)
 * Pragmàtiques i altres drets de Catalunya ("Pragmatics and other rights of Catalonia" or is it "Pragmatic (and other) rights of Catalonia"?)
 * Constitucions i altres drets de Catalunya superflus, contraris i corregits ("Constitutions and other supplementary, contrary, and corrected rights of Catalonia"?)

I may have done poorly on this; I believe I have correctly understood each word individually, but not necessarily the grammar. If someone is not sure how to translate into English, but can translate into Spanish, I'm sure I can go from there.

Also, a question on Pragmàtiques i altres drets de Catalunya: Google does not find this string, or any obvious close variant, anywhere on the Internet. Since important documents in Catalan history are usually well-covered on the Web, and rare books even more so, that seems very surprising. Is this possibly better known by another name? -- Jmabel | Talk 07:01, 29 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Your translatons are very correct. The only title word you seem have not understood is superlus which means non relevant. The reason of not being a lot of internet documents on this point is a whole state which its corresponding power interested in making silence about its own consitution origins being not clear, and really still today very discussed. This is the reason I have taken the time to scan the original documents and uploaded them. I have just now added an external link to the Catalan Government website where you can also check this a real historic document. Several wars have been necessary to silence the catalan rigths. This is exactly the importance of this article being in a free work like this, the wikipedia. I have only a but to your nice rewriting: I'm sorry but saying Spain in the year 1716 this is in fact partisan, wrong and not neutral, as in this year Catalonia had still its own Constitution. All spanish consitutions after this only dear to speak about Spanish Reigns (in plural) which included the Catalan Reign, althougth often refered as Reign of Aragon, only to avoid the word Catalonia. In fact the first spanish constitution that speaks about Spain is the one of 1978! Pls read the article Catalan Grand Company and you may understand better the reason: envy.--Friviere 19:02, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Introduction
This article needs an introduction, before the first heading. --Pelago 14:36, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Photos
Is it necessary to have two copies of the same photo on one page?Grammarmonger 15:21, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No. I removed it. BTW, it's not from 1413, which precedes printing, but is likely from the 1702 edition, judging by the typography.  I also removed the supposed "1585" compliation which is (expressly) from the 1702 edition, because a (much nicer) title page of that same edition already is on the page.

'Corts' are not courts in English but Parliament
There is a sentence saying that 'Corts' means 'courts' in English, and this is not correct. 'Les Corts' are the equivalent of 'the Parliament' since in English court(s) can be: a Court of Law, a quadrangular market, a sovereign's retinue, councillors or residence. None of which can be understood as equivalent to Corts in the sense of a parliament or legislature. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EnricX (talk • contribs) 19:01, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
