Abstract

The Crisis in Spain
October 1, 1868 issue

add to cart   close window

For the sixtieth time, perhaps, within the last sixty years, Spain is convulsed by insurrection. And this insurrection is not one of those ephemeral phenomena to which have become so much accustomed in the Iberian peninsula, not one of those unexpected shocks which shake the ground for a second. The geographical position and the history of Spain have combined to make its people the most homogeneous of nations. But light and life re-entered Spain-not developed by the slow workings of reform, refinement, or education, of reviving industry, commerce, and intercourse with foreigners, but carried thither by the torch of the invader.
