L'enseignement religieux dans la couronne de Castille

La historiografía tradicional, española y europea, ha considerado la Guerra de Granada (1482-1492) como un hecho de naturaleza y alcance exclusivamente hispánicos. Se trataba del último episodio de un proceso ibérico, la « Reconquista », el enfrentamiento secular entre el Islam y la Cristiandad, consustancial al Medievo peninsular. El nacionalismo romántico del siglo XIX y la dictadura de Franco (1939-1975) lo marcaron a fuego en la identidad nacional española. Sin embargo, en las últimas décadas se han revisado estos postulados, hasta culminar en una revisión radical. Librado el...

En este libro aprenderemos de la mano de José M.ª Bermúdez de Castro lo que la ciencia ha podido averiguar hasta el momento sobre los procesos evolutivos que han conducido al hombre desde las densas selvas de África hasta la colonización de los cinco continentes.

Studies in Spanish American regional history have, as yet, made little attempt to incorporate the struggles for independence within the context of provincial society and politics viewed over the broader period that spans the late colonial and early national experience of Latin America. This book attempts a new perspective: it emphasises the provincial milieu and popular participation in its varied forms, often ambiguous and contradictory. The central aim is to examine social conflicts, chiefly in the Mexican provinces of Puebla, Guadalajara, Michoacán, and Guanajuato from the middle of the...
