The Soul of the Nation : Catholicism and Nationalization in Modern Spain, Hardback Book

The Soul of the Nation : Catholicism and Nationalization in Modern Spain Hardback

Edited by Gregorio Alonso, Claudio Hernandez Burgos

Part of the Studies in Latin American and Spanish History series

Hardback

Description

Religion and politics have historically clashed in modern Spain but the complexity of the controversial and sometimes violent relationships between Catholic values and modern political regimes continue to ride a precarious line of spiritual accommodation versus public policy.

Leading experts on religious Spanish tradition and recent historiographic findings set out to define and interrogate grey areas in the last two centuries beyond the reductive conventional notion of an ever-warring "Two Spains." The Soul of the Nation unravels the role of religion in the country's public life following the imperial crisis of 1808 when the Catholic Monarchy put the role of the Church at heart of political and cultural debates.
