In the past decade a tremendous increase in family history research in
Italy, Spain and Portugal provides new insight into family processes and has many
implications for generalizations regarding the course of European family history. In this
article many of these new findings are detailed and their historical and theoretical
implications assessed. Previous generalizations regarding Mediterranean family history
are examined in light of this new evidence. Among the topics discussed are the sources
and methods employed in recent research, the household formation systems operating in
Italy and Iberia, the role played by inheritance norms and by dowry, changing childrear
ing practices—especially as regards child abandonment, marriage patterns, the family
lives of the elderly, and the impact of migration on family life. The benefits of considering
certain cultural topics in understanding the course of southern European family history
are also considered
