Breve historia de Francisco Franco

José Luis Hernández Garvi nos presenta la cara oculta y menos conocida de la personalidad de Franco, muy alejada de la idea que en su día fue difundida por la propaganda del régimen. Siguiendo el relato que el autor nos plantea, nos sorprenderemos al descubrir cómo el general atribuyó su papel en la Historia a la baraka que le protegía, las causas que motivaron su obsesión por la masonería, el carácter de lucha esotérica entre el bien y el mal que concedió a la guerra fratricida entre españoles, la relación de naturaleza esotérica que el régimen franquista mantuvo con los...

Los tres ensayos que integran este volumen analizan en profundidad la trayectoria de una tendencia historiográfica -el revisionismo histórico- cuyo discurso ha influido en los distintos movimientos políticos sudamericanos a lo largo de todo el siglo XX.

El Escorial is more than a monument to the zeal of Spain’s Catholicism; it is also a symbol of Spain at its imperial apogee. This imposing, granite edifice was built by King Philip II to celebrate Spain’s victory over the French at Saint-Quentin on August 10, 1557.
