It is a very widespread idea among the Spanish political class then and now: “I am a republican by sentiment, but a monarchist by common sense.” A significant example was that of Emilio Castelar , from conservative revolutionary to monarchical republican, with an inconceivable possibility. In Spain you can be a republican, in a kind of toast to the sun, but only on the condition of going with the Crown. And that republican feeling is renounced with the pretext that it is not the time to put it into practice. There are always more pressing issues. There is always a tomorrow. And meanwhile we Spaniards enjoy the monarchy, although time after time its holders and its defenders degrade it. An explicit example, the Emeritus . Isn't a movement of denunciation and rejection of the maintenance of this unjustified title going to emerge in Spanish society? Such faintheartedness of Spanish society reminds me of Silvela 's 1898 article A society without a pulse. As Santiago Alba Rico very correctly points out in his book.
Spain, liberals have never had the courage to eliminate the Monarchy. The Spanish liberals of the 19th century could have taken the example of two countries, where they had to go into exile due to absolutist persecution, that of the United Kingdom, which republicanized the monarchy, or eliminated it, as in France. Here the liberals of the 19th century did neither one nor the other. Due to the weight of the monarchy in our history, the deputies who drafted the Constitution of 1812 in Cádiz were not able to eliminate it. The same weight of Australia Phone Number the history of the Catholic Church explains art.The religion of the Spanish Nation is and will perpetually be the Catholic, apostolic, Roman, and only true religion. The Nation protects it by wise and just laws and prohibits the exercise of any other . What liberalism! It is possible to think that the deputies of Cádiz would have knowledge of the character called to reign, the devious Fernando VII. Here are some of their regrettable behaviors, which Josep Fontana tells us . At the time of the War of Independence, while the Spanish were fighting to the death with the invading French army, his actions were shameful.
Ferdinand published a decree condemning the malignity of those who sought to create unrest among the French. After the departure of the entire royal family to France following Napoleon's designs, the scenes that took place in Bayonne were of abject baseness, with both Charles IV and Ferdinand VII ceding all their rights to the French emperor. Then Fernando, his brother Carlos and his uncle Antonio went to their captivity in Valençay, where they showed the most repulsive evidence of their moral turpitude. Ferdinand would congratulate Napoleon on his military victories over the Spanish. He would later write to him: “My great desire is to be the adopted son of His Majesty the Emperor, our august sovereign. I believe myself worthy of this adoption, which would truly be the happiness of my life, given my love for the sacred person of SMI and R.” Napoleon himself was surprised at such servility. As Josep Fontana says , “It is not worth spending more time on these little characters and their miseries, the history of Spain was at that time very far from the salons of Valençay, where Fernando and his uncle Antonio entertained their leisure in needlework and embroidery.
