PASTOR VITA, Francisco Javier. Historia de la venta alzada o en globo del derecho romano al Código Civil español. Rev. estud. hist.-juríd. [online]. 2006, n.28, pp.227-266. ISSN 0716-5455.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0716-54552006000100006.

The objective of this article is to analyze the historic background for the so-called lump-sum sale in Spanish law. The current regulation of this sale is novel and original, a product of a historic evolution that has shaped it as one of the seller’s particular responsibilities. This analysis goes from the Roman background until its crystallization in the Parts as well as its trajectory toward the Spanish Civil Code.
