Book Taming the Revolution in Nineteenth Century Spain

Download or read book Taming the Revolution in Nineteenth Century Spain written by Andrea Acle-Kreysing and published by Campus Verlag. This book was released on 2022-11-23 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jaime Balmes und Juan Donoso Cortés – die beiden wichtigsten konservativen Denker im Spanien des 19. Jahrhunderts – versuchten aktiv im Zuge des aufkommenden Liberalismus, die Zentralität von Kirche und Monarchie zu bewahren, und gleichzeitig die stereotype Sichtweise Spaniens als rückständiges und isoliertes Land zu diskreditieren. Obwohl sie ein ähnliches Ziel verfolgten, unterschieden sich ihre Standpunkte: Während Balmes' Werke einen sozial orientierten Katholizismus vorwegnahmen, stellte Donoso das Christentum als höchstes soziales Gut dar, das mit dem modernen Liberalismus unvereinbar war. Andrea Acle-Kreysing hebt die ungelösten Spannungen in ihren Werken hervor und zeigt, dass das spanische politische Denken eine anregende Variante – und keine Abweichung – der zeitgenössischen europäischen Debatten war.

Download or read book Fascism in Spain 1923 1977 written by Stanley G. Payne and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2000-01-10 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fascism in Spain, 1923–1977, by celebrated historian Stanley G. Payne, is the most comprehensive history of Spanish fascism to appear in any language. This authoritative study offers treatment of all the major doctrines, personalities, and defining features of the Spanish fascist movement, from its beginnings until the death of General Francisco Franco in 1977. Payne describes and analyzes the development of the Falangist party both prior to and during the Spanish Civil War, presenting a detailed analysis of its transformation into the state party of the Franco regime—Falange Española Tradicionalista—as well as its ultimate conversion into the pseudofascist Movimiento Nacional. Payne devotes particular attention to the crucial years 1939–1942, when the Falangists endeavored to expand their influence and convert the Franco regime into a fully Fascist system. Fascism in Spain helps us to understand the personality of Franco, the way in which he handled conflict within the regime, and the reasons for the long survival of his rule. Payne concludes with the first full inquiry into the process of “defascistization,” which began with the fall of Mussolini in 1943 and extended through the Franco regime’s later efforts to transform the party into a more viable political entity.

Book Neo Thomism in Action

    Book Details:
  • Author : Wim Decock
  • Publisher : Leuven University Press
  • Release : 2021-12-01
  • ISBN : 946270306X
  • Pages : 338 pages

Download or read book Neo Thomism in Action written by Wim Decock and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his encyclical Aeterni Patris (1879), Pope Leo XIII expressed the conviction that the renewed study of the philosophical legacy of Saint Thomas Aquinas would help Catholics to engage in a dialogue with secular modernity while maintaining respect for Church doctrine and tradition. As a result, the neo-scholastic framework dominated Catholic intellectual production for nearly a century thereafter. This volume assesses the societal impact of the Thomist revival movement, with particular attention to the juridical dimension of this epistemic community. Contributions from different disciplinary backgrounds offer a multifaceted and in-depth analysis of many different networks and protagonists of the neo-scholastic movement, its institutions and periodicals, and its conceptual frameworks. Although special attention is paid to the Leuven Institute of Philosophy and Faculty of Law, the volume also discloses the neo-Thomist revival in other national and transnational contexts. By highlighting diverse aspects of its societal and legal impact, Neo-Thomism in Action argues that neo-scholasticism was neither a sterile intellectual exercise nor a monolithic movement. The book expands our understanding of how Catholic intellectual discourse communities were constructed and how they pervaded law and society during the late 19th century and the first half of the 20th century.

Book Textual Intersections

Download or read book Textual Intersections written by Rachael Langford and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2009 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the multifaceted ways in which textual material in nineteenth-century European cultures intersected with non-literary cultural artefacts and concepts. The essays consider the presence of such diverse phenomena as the dandy, nationhood, diasporic identity, operatic and dramatic personae and effects, trapeze artists, paintings, and the grotesque and fantastic in the work of a variety of writers from France, Germany, Spain, Britain, Russia, Greece and Italy. The volume argues for a view of the long nineteenth century as a century of lively cultural dialogue and exchange between national and sub-national cultures, between 'high' and popular art forms, and between different genres and different media, and it will be of interest to general readers and scholars alike.

Book Catholicism as Decadence

Download or read book Catholicism as Decadence written by Marcello Fantoni and published by Mauro Pagliai Editore. This book was released on 2008 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the result of two workshops that took place at the Center for the Study of Italian History & Culture of Georgetown University (Fiesole) and dealt with the relationship between Catholicism and the interpretative canons of history. This theme was instrumental to the discussion of the causes leading to the emergence of the concept of decadence during the age of the counter-reformation and of the link between Catholicism and anti-modernity. In keeping with this theme the volume offers a panorama of the various national historiographies in order to highlight the specific ideological and historiographical trends that led to this association. From the discussion emerged both common trends and different declinations of one single phenomenon. Thus, it has been possible to present for the first time both a comparative perspective and a more general view.The association between Catholicism and anti-modernity, which originated during the age of the Reformation and expressed itself in literature, in historiography, and in political and philosophical thought and, more generally in the collective imagination, has become a cultural phenomenon that reached its zenith in the nineteenth century. It has had a strong impact on the epistemology of historical research, has contributed to shape many different identitary paradigms and has become a distorting lens through which to read the role of Catholicism in political debate and in social dynamics. Contributors: Marcello Fantoni, Chiara Continisio, John T. McGreevy, John O'Malley, John Monfasani, José Martínez Millán, Simon Ditchfield, Manfred Hinz, Helen Hills.

Book Political Revolution and Literary Experiment in the Spanish Romantic Period  1830 1850

Download or read book Political Revolution and Literary Experiment in the Spanish Romantic Period 1830 1850 written by Andrew Ginger and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work brings together the study of political and literary thought in response to revolution in order to present an alternative view of the strength of liberalism generally and progressivism in particular. It re-examines the achievements of progressive thought about politics, history, nationhood, and literature, investigating the basis of the philosophical dispute between Conservative and left Liberals. The strong presence of progressive thought in Spain is affirmed. The study also underlines the importance for literary historians of understanding more sympathetically the contribution of Conservative Liberal thought to a recognizable Liberal Romanticism.
