title: [Nuptiality and professional groups in Quebec during the French regime].
abstract: "The demographic regime that historically characterizes any given society constitutes a complex whole in which several elements interact.  In relation to marriages, we have been able to demonstrate that, for the City of Quebec during the French regime, the age of first marriages reflects a specific division of tasks according to sex within the family.  At the same time, it is a reflection of the differences that exist in the possibilities for getting established and the requirements of rank among the various professional groups.  Moreover, the study of matrimonial ties demonstrates the degree of professional endogamy, which is much stronger within the upper group (officers and merchants)." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)
