The Eighteenth Century Revolution In Spain

A study of the Enlightenment in Spain in the second half of the eighteenth century. It is original in two respects: it is the first attempt to give a total view of the subject, in its political, religious and economic as well as in its cultural and social aspects, and it makes a valuable distinction between the years before and after 1789, between the Spain of Charles III and the Spain beset by the French Revolution.
