MARK LAWRENCE on Spain's 'Black Legend'
Update: 2024-07-17
Description
Spain's story during the Napoleonic period is an Atlantic one, as Dr Mark Lawrence of the University of Kent has pointed out. Fresh from recording on the War of the Oranges, which you can hear in episode 38, here Mark discusses a range of topics including the legacy of the Spanish Empire and notions of the 'Black Legend' of anti-Spanish propaganda; South America during the Napoleonic Wars; Spain's position at the end of the 1792-1815 period; Spanish memoirs and source material on the Peninsular War; and Charles Esdaile's position in the historiography of Spain.
