Monstrum by Donald James
This scholarly study examines politics and society in Vizcaya -- an important province in the Spanish Basque region -- during the first third of the nineteenth century. Focusing on the period 1800--1833, the author conducts a detailed historical inquiry into the general origins of the First Carlist War in Vizcaya. Utilizing a vast array of unpublished primary sources gathered in numerous Spanish and French archives, Barahona addresses a wide range of factors -- political, social, economic, ideological, religious, and military -- that laid the foundation for the severe conflicts the region endured in the 1830s. Specifically, the author examines the many significant developments that took place in Vizcaya such as the War of Independence and its aftermath (1808--1814), the First Restoration (1814--1820), constitutionalism and the Liberal Triennium (1820--1823). In addition, detailed attention is given to another important point of conflict: relations between Vizcaya and the Spanish state during the 1823--1833 decade.| SKU | Unavailable |
