España es esto y todo lo contrario

Historian Déborah García Sánchez-Marín dissects the past of Spain, the place where we seek answers more than ever in times of crisis. History is what we need to know to understand the present. But what happens when we feel that there are parts of the story that still escape us? How to understand what we are without being able to explore all that we were? In Spain it is this and quite the opposite, the historian Deborah García Sánchez-Marín reviews the hegemonic discourse that was for years the only version of the history of the country that we are today. Through key dates to understand the construction of the idea of ??Spain, it recovers visions and versions of the untold and the unnamed to add edges and details to stories such as the coronation denied to Juana I as Queen of Castile, the Great Redain, the end of the War of Succession or the expulsion of the Moors from the peninsular territory. With all of them she manages to create a complete reflection of the years that shaped the current country, because even what we do not know represents what we are. A review of the hegemonic discourse through eleven historical dates that have created our version of today's Spain.
