Bøger af Scott Eastman

A Missionary Nation focuses on Spain's crusade to resurrect its empire, beginning with the War of Africa.

Tackles the complex issue of nationalism in the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Spanish Atlantic empire. Scott Eastman challenges the idea that nationalism arose from the ashes of confessional society. Rather, Roman Catholicism and the ideals of Enlightenment worked together to lay the basis for a "mixed modernity" within Spanish territories.
