  • Battle of Alpens
    #unmondecultura TOURISTIC TOUR BY COOLTUR TURISME CULTURAL BATTLE OF ALPENS @cooltur1 @twitcooltur @_cooltur #unmondecultura www.cooltur.org © COOLTUR Turisme Cultural #unmondecultura Carlism was a phenomenon that appeared during the first third of the nineteenth century, and caused three civil wars. Its origin is found in the absence of males in the line of succession Spanish monarch Fernando VII, which only had a daughter, Isabel II. Fernando VII, at the gates of death from illness, in 1830, abolished the Salic law, law that prevented women reign, by the Pragmatic Sanction. With this decision, the monarch ensured the line of succession for his daughter. This decision was strongly opposed by his brother, Carlos Maria Isidro (Carlos V) who aspired to the Spanish crown. These wars, however, went beyond a simple dynastic struggle. They assumed the struggle between two political conceptions, marking a before and after in the Spanish constitution. All attempts of Carlists to access the Spanish throne were unsuccessful. The three wars were won by the liberal side. Who were the Carlists? The Carlists were defenders of tradition, which used to legitimize their rights and values: God, Country, King and Jurisdictions. So, who was part of Carlist was most of noble class, different sectors of the Catholic Church, and some of the agricultural landowners. In the three wars fought for the legitimacy of the male branch to the Spanish throne, and against the liberal doctrine, which they considered an ominous modernity. So in the First Carlist War (1833 - 1840) Carlist leader was Carlos María Isidro, brother of Fernando VII and known as Carlos V.

  • Forgeries of the Stamps of Spain
    * Third * CARLIST WAR STAMP Issues •! Background The Third Carlist war began when Amadeo I of Savoy was crowned as King of Spain, instead of the Carlist pretender Carlos VII in 1871, after the overthrow of Isabel II in 1868 at the La Gloriosa revolution. The selection of Amadeo I was a great insult for the Carlists who at the time had strong support in northern Spain especially in the C!atalonia, Navarre and the Basque Provinces. After some internal dissensions in 1870-1871, ending with the removal of Cabrera as head of the Carlist party, the Carlists started a general uprising against Amadeo I's government and its Liberal supporters. The Third Carlist War became the final act of a long fight between Spanish progressives and traditionalists which started after the Spanish Peninsular War from 1808 to 1814 and the promulgation of the constitution of Cadiz which ended the ancien regime in Spain. Mistrust and rivalry among members of the royal family also enlarged the conflict.

  • The Rhetoric of Miguel De Unamuno's Newspaper
    “WITH WEAPONS OF BURNING WORDS”: THE RHETORIC OF MIGUEL DE UNAMUNO’S NEWSPAPER WRITINGS A Dissertation by ELIZABETH RAY EARLE Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Nathan Crick Committee Members, Leroy Dorsey Alberto Moreiras Randall Sumpter Head of Department, Kevin Barge August 2019 Major Subject: Communication Copyright 2019 Elizabeth Ray Earle ABSTRACT Although he was most famous for his books of fiction and philosophy, 20th century Spanish public intellectual Miguel de Unamuno also wrote a large body of newspaper articles in which he critiqued politics and society during his lifetime. Unamuno lived during a polarized time in Spanish history, and he witnessed many political and social conflicts, including the Third Carlist War, the Spanish-American War, World War I, a military dictatorship, the Second Spanish Republic, Franco’s military coup, and the Spanish Civil War. In the midst of this atmosphere of conflict and polarization, Unamuno used the medium of the newspaper to diagnose Spain’s problem and to present possible solutions. This project examines the rhetorical style that Unamuno developed in response to his political context, as he examined Spanish society and the various political regimes in Spain. As he defined the problem, Unamuno characterized it as one of ideology, excess rationalism, and inauthenticity. To solve this problem, Unamuno approached it in two ways. First, he acted as what he called an “idea-breaker,” or as one who assumes an attitude of skepticism and uses individual thought to break down ideas and dogma.

Oñati Socio-legal Series [online], 7 (6), 1308-1342. Available from: http://ssrn.com/abstract=3041222 Abstract The aim in this thesis is to show how the Basque-culture identity struggles are reflected within the Basque literature and how their actions, behaviour, traditions, culture, memory, language, etcetera, define them as a community or minority. In order to show the reflection of the law in five chosen novels written in Basque, firstly I will try to explain the link between law and literature, and afterwards, a double analytical construction will take place: on the first hand, a descriptive and historical explanation to provide the audience with the meaning of the three basic concepts which constitute the Basque culture -identity, conflict and memory-, and with a socio-historical context; on the second hand, this analysis will be based on the content analysis of the five novels that have been chosen, and contextualized or in relation to the period that goes from the Civil War (1936-1939) to the post- war and nowadays, with special insistences in the decade of the 1980s and 1990s. Key words Basque Country-Spain; collective identity; collective memory; conflict; living law; positive law; Basque; Euskara; literature; ETA; Twist; tradition; transition Resumen El objetivo de esta tesis es mostrar cómo los conflictos identitarios de la cultura vasca se reflejan en la literatura, y cómo sus acciones, comportamiento, tradiciones, cultura, memoria, lengua, etc., lo definen como comunidad o minoría.

  • Napoleon in Spain Spain Was in the Hands of the Weak Charles IV and the Queen´S Favourite Chief Minister, Godoy
    UNIT 4 The Directory Napoleon in Spain Spain was in the hands of the weak Charles IV and the Queen´s favourite Chief Minister, Godoy. In 1795 Spain had been forced to make peace with France and Spain became France's ally and a supplier of men and resources. Napoleon was not satisfied. He wanted to overrun Portugal. He insisted on the abdication of Charles IV and made the Spanish heir, Ferdinand, renounce his claim to the throne. Instead, Joseph, Napoleon´s brother, was to be crowned in Madrid. In May 1808, the ordinary people of Madrid started an insurrection against Joachim Murat, who had been sent there with the French army. The French suppressed the revolt and carried out horrifying reprisals. Joseph found himself in a largely hostile land, as Spain was divided for and against the French. 4 of 8 UNIT 4 The Directory There were groups of Spanish people, many of them from the educated and middle classes, who wanted to reform their country and draw on the French example to bring about change. The Spanish clergy was against the French, who were identified with deschristianisation and attacks on the Catholic Church. Property owners were equally suspicious. Juntas (local resistance committees) were formed and Spanish partisans armed themselves. At Bailsmenen (July 1808) a French division was defeated by Spanish forces, Napoleon sent two corps of the Grande Armée to Spain. The Spanish Junta appealed to England for assistance and the Duke of Wellington arrived with 10.000 men. Napoleon failed to know the geography of Spain and its big size.

  • Carlism and Anarchism in Modern Spain, 1868-1937
    The Commonality of Enemies: Carlism and anarchism in modern Spain, 1868-1937 Steven Henry Martin A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Steven Henry Martin 2014 History M.A. Graduate Program May 2014 The Commonality of Enemies: Carlism and anarchism in modern Spain, 1868-1937 ABSTRACT The Commonality of Enemies: Carlism and anarchism in modern Spain, 1868-1937 Steven Henry Martin Carlism and anarchism were revolutionary social movements that acquired significant popular support during the most intensive period of modernization in Spain (mid 19th to mid 20th centuries). It was noted but not well explored by contemporaries and historians that these enemies were similar in their hostility towards modernization and in their intense idealism. This thesis compares the two movements in order to determine the nature of their commonality and what this suggests about ideological enemies. A range of sources were consulted, including scholarship on modern Spain, biographical information on individuals who converted from Carlism to anarchism and contemporary print media. It was concluded that they were produced by the same destabilizing processes of disentailment and industrialization, which drew the working classes towards proposals that would have otherwise seemed implausibly utopian. The thesis further suggests that they were uniquely idealistic, in that they put moral integrity before the success of their cause. Keywords: Modern Spain; Carlism; anarchism; social movements; populism; modernization; land reform; enemy other; ideology; utopianism.

First, Spanish legal history shows the existence of different legal traditions which are, in turn, composed of a plurality of laws.
