Ritos del Nacimiento al Matrimonio en Vasconia (Rites from Birth to Marriage in the Basque Country) is an ethnographic research project conducted by the Etniker Euskalerria Groups. It forms part of the Ethnographic Atlas of the Basque Country designed by José Miguel de Barandiarán. The three previous volumes, Alimentación Doméstica (Household Foodstuffs), Juegos Infantiles (Children's Games) and Ritos Funerarios (Funeral Rites) were published in 1990, 1993 and 1995 respectively.
The research was carried out in the territory which now forms the Basque Country, an area of Western Europe stretching from the River Adour in the north to the River Ebro in the south. This area includes two political areas within Spain (the Basque Autonomous Community and the Community of Navarre), and part of the French departement of Pyrénées Atlantiques. Its total surface area is 20,531 km2, and its population is 2,937,151 (1990 figures).
Field work was carried out in sixty-six towns spread throughout Alava, Biscay, Gipuzkoa, Navarre, Basse-Navarre, Labourd and Soule. The factors taken into account in selecting towns for the survey included the regional diversity of the territory being studied and of the rural, urban and coastal areas where the survey was carried out. The ethnographic questionnaire used can be found in the Guía Para una encuesta etnográfica (Guide for an Ethnographic Survey. Chapter II. Household Group Uses) published by Barandiarán in 1974, and more specifically in the questions on rites of passage for birth and baptism; childhood and youth; courtship, marriage and weddings (questions 1I.174 to 11.237).
This work was written up by the Ethnography Department of the Instituto Labayru. It describes the rites performed from birth to marriage. Together with the funeral rites described in the previous volume these complete the rites of passage found in the Basque Country.
The first section describes the birth and early care of children, along with children's beliefs about where babies come from and adult beliefs concerned with birth. Then baptism ceremonies and prescribed behaviour for the postnatal period. A look at initiation to childhood, the rite of first Holy Communion and the learning of domestic chores by children conclude the first six chapters.
Las costumbres relacionadas y asociadas a la juventud conforman el grueso de la segunda parte. El baile, los cortejos y galanteos amorosos dan paso al apartado donde se trata la formalización del noviazgo. Capítulos posteriores se ocupan de describir las capitulaciones matrimoniales y la dote, que antaño tuvieron mayor importancia, y los preparativos de boda que comprenden las proclamas, la despedida de soltero y las invitaciones y obsequios hechos con ocasión del casamiento.
Los capítulos doce al quince tratan de la boda. La comitiva nupcial, la ceremonia religiosa, el banquete de bodas y los rituales observados en el mismo, la ofrenda postnupcial y la tornaboda, el antiguo acarreo del ajuar y la entrada en el domicilio conyugal son los asuntos centrales objeto de estudio. Finaliza la obra con sendos capítulos sobre la soltería, el casamiento de viejos y viudos y las uniones libres.
Tanto los tres volúmenes anteriores como éste dedicado a los ritos de paso del nacimiento al matrimonio, y los posteriores que completarán el Atlas etnográfico estudian el grupo humano de Vasconia en sus diversas manifestaciones. Para ello se ha tenido en cuenta la cultura tradicional tal como ha sido registrada a lo largo de este siglo y las transformaciones contemporáneas operadas.
