摘要:This paper examines anti-liberal reactionary discourse in the first few years of the Spanish (liberal) Revolution. It is centred on the controversy that liberal congressman Joaquín Lorenzo Villanueva and publicist and Capuchin Friar Rafael de Vélez courted between 1820 and 1825. The sources used refer directly to the writings of both protagonists taking Friar Vélez’s «Apología del Trono» as their starting point. Methodologically, the analysis’ perspective adopts part of the theoretical consideration that critique of Liberalism, in its diverse manifestations, was an inherent part of the revolutionary process rather than a marginal element of it. Analysis of said writings reveals the historical complexity of the ‘Revolution-Reaction’ dialectic at the same time as transcending the field of doctrine to place the actors at the heart of the dispute and political action. The studies surrounding reactionary anti-liberalism have recieved scant attenion from historians. Having rejected not only biased opinions but also those marked by old liberal or Marxist historical paradigms, the authors present this study to contribute to an integrated understanding of the revolutionary process. The aim is to enter into the internal logic of those who opposed the Revolution, their code of honour, their interpretation of the past and the future they projected.
