Description
Summary:The artistic historicism as a mechanism of political and religious legitimacy: Antonio López Ferreiro and the second inventio ofthe Apostle Saint James in Compostela: In this paper we aim to collect some of the ideological parameters that led López Ferreiro to reconstruct the crypt of the Cathedral of Santiago making use of the historicist style to legitimate the holy remains recovered in the second inventio, within a context of enthusiastic scientific and historiographic activity, when de polemic about the authenticity of the relics of the Apostle accentuated. In addition, this event is part of the pretensions of Archbishop Payá y Rico, openly confronted with López Ferreiro and his lobby. Our reflection presents the sources and publications created by the own churchwarden, as well as the documents related to the project, consulted in the archive of the Cathedral of Santiago, and the subsequent bibliography. We will try to demonstrate that each design of each element orchestrated by the churchwarden is pursuing the identification of the material object with a cultural and historical idea which evocates a particular power and religiosity based on the first and twelfth century.
En este artículo pretendemos recoger algunos de los parámetros ideológicos que llevaron a López Ferreiro a reconstruir la cripta de la catedral de Santiago haciendo uso del historicismo para legitimar los restos sagrados recuperados tras la segunda in-ventio, en un contexto de entusiasta actividad científica e historiográfica en el que se acentuó la polémica sobre la autenticidad de las reliquias del Apóstol. Además, este suceso se enmarca en las pretensiones del arzobispo Payá y Rico, abiertamente enfrentado con López Ferreiro y su cabildo. Nuestra reflexión recoge las fuentes y publicaciones creadas por el propio fabriquero, los docu-mentos relativos a las obras consultados en el archivo de la catedral de Santiago, y un repaso de la bibliografía jacobea. Trataremos de demostrar que el diseño de cada elemento orquestado por el fabriquero persigue la identificación del objeto material con una idea cultural e histórica que evoca un poder y una religiosidad concreta basadas en los siglos I y XII.
