Summary: | The versatile and expansive magisterium of Fr. Revuelta is crucially important to understand, within its own context (the revolutionary and liberal context of the 19th and 20th centuries), the lives of the Spanish religious men and women throughout these two centuries. Revuelta invested an immense amount of time to recover documents and with these texts to reconstruct the lives of thousands of religious men and women who suffered the most adverse effects of the Spanish liberal Revolution because of their faithfulness to their vocation and to their religious congregations. With the approval of the «confiscator decrees», Spanish liberal politicians outlawed religious, essentially illegalizing their lives as religious. As a result, monks, nuns, and friars found themselves suddenly poor and without a future inside their national territories. In the second part of this article, we will point to the attempts to reconstruct religious life during the Borbonic Restoration period. El magisterio del P. Revuelta, además de amplio y versátil, resulta clave para comprender dentro de su propio contexto, el contexto revolucionario y liberal de los siglos XIX y XX, la vida de los religiosos españoles a lo largo de estos dos siglos. Revuelta dedicó tiempo a exhumar documentos y reconstruir históricamente la vida de miles de religiosos que, por fidelidad a su vocación personal y a la orden religiosa en la que se consagraron a Dios, acabaron sufriendo en sus propias carnes los efectos más negativos de la Revolución liberal española. Los liberales españoles aprobaron decretos, en el fondo antiliberales e inconstitucionales, los famosos decretos desamortizadores, que pusieron fuera de la ley a miles de religiosos: los famosos exclaustrados. Miles de españoles, antiguos monjes, monjas, frailes y religiosos, se vieron, de la noche a la mañana, empobrecidos y sin apenas futuro dentro del territorio nacional. En la segunda parte de esta colaboración, presentamos los intentos de reconstrucción de la vida religiosa en la España de la Restauración borbónica. |
