| Summary: | To argue in court is to set out the facts and ideas in order to convince the judge. The procedure organizes and frames the debate with the aim of revealing a judicial truth based on solid evidence provided by both parties. The judicial practices of the parliament of Tournai were no exception to this rule. The aim of this article is to explore some concrete features of the argumentation by analysing the register of the third chamber of this high court of the late seventeenth century. In particular, we will examine two important litigation categories: disputes over the enjoyment of property or rights, and conflicts over the cost of church repairs. |
