Gibraltar: A Dagger in the Spine of Spain?
ISBN: 9781845196134 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The "problem" of Gibraltar has been a constant source of diplomatic tension between Britain and Spain for more than 300 years. Franco himself described the Rock as a "dagger in the spine of Spain," and it was during his dictatorship that Spain's diplomatic campaign to recover Gibraltar reached its height with the closing of the frontier in 1969. Given this background, it has long been assumed by historians and commentators that relations between Gibraltar and its Spanish neighbor have also been strained. Gareth Stockey rejects this assumption, and demonstrates that relations across the...

The Rosary, the Republic, and the Right: Spain and the Vatican Hierarchy, 1931-1939
ISBN: 9781845196141 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The birth of the Second Spanish Republic in April 1931 ushered in a period of possible secularization to Spain. Liberals welcomed legal changes, while conservatives feared the special "privileges" they enjoyed would end. The Catholic Church remained a central focus of left-wing antagonism and right-wing allegiances, and conflicts surrounding the future of religion grew severe. While members of the Spanish Catholic hierarchy had clearly supported the right and disdained the left, the actions and opinions of the Vatican and its hierarchy stationed in Spain were much more nuanced. Similarly,...

Landscapes of Bacchus: The Vine in Portugal
ISBN: 9780292769311 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In a country of disparate parts and of long, unbroken historical experience, there may be one dominant feature, a clue to the character of its regions. In Portugal the vine serves as this clue. The vine has been an important aspect of the Iberian landscape since prehistoric times, and farmers still use Roman methods of cultivation that have been adapted to regional physical conditions and to socioeconomic structure. Southern Portugal today is almost vineless, but in the north three areas can be distinguished by their vine forms and their products. Dan Stanislawski examines these...

Ecclesiastical Knights: The Military Orders in Castile, 1150-1330
ISBN: 9780823265954 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Warrior monks"--the misnomer for the Iberian military orders that emerged on the frontiers of Europe in the twelfth century--have long fascinated general readers and professional historians alike. Proposing "ecclesiastical knights" as a more accurate name and conceptual model--warriors animated by ideals and spiritual currents endorsed by the church hierarchy--author Sam Zeno Conedera presents a groundbreaking study of how these orders brought the seemingly incongruous combination of monastic devotion and the practice of warfare into a single way of life. Providing a detailed study of the...
