... is candid and objective in his discussion of Navarrete, pointing out those situations where he was slanderous, irrational, or contradictory.

Published: 01 November 1979
... the full extent of obsessions verging on the irrational. In these circumstances the charge that the Jesuits had fomented the Motín de Esquilache provided at last the excuse necessary to deal with an order seen as a political faction bent on challenging the king himself. The publication of the Dictamen...
