      \textit{D. Eisenbud} and \textit{J. Harris} developed a general theory in order to understand what happens to a linear system and its ramification points on a smooth curve, when the curve degenerates to a curve \(C\) of compact type. The same authors [Invent. Math. 87, 495-515 (1987; Zbl 0606.14014)] asked ``What are the limits of Weierstrass points in families of curves degenerating to a stable curve \(C\) not of compact type?''. The author gives an answer to their question. Moreover, in this paper the author, dealing with a more general situation, uses new and different techniques (from those of Eisenbud and Harris). So, his work is a contribution to the theory of limit linear systems even when \(C\) is a curve of compact type.
